Poem A Day

Classic poem

To tell the Beauty would decrease

by Emily Dickinson

To tell the Beauty would decrease

To state the Spell demean --

There is a syllable-less Sea

Of which it is the sign --

My will endeavors for its word

And fails, but entertains

A Rapture as of Legacies --

Of introspective Mines --
