Because I could not stop for Death— He kindly stopped for me— The Carriage held but just Ourselves— And Immortality. We slowly drove—He knew no haste And I had put away My labor and my leisure too, For His Civility— We passed the School, where Children strove At Recess—in the Ring— We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain— We passed the Setting Sun— Or rather—he passed us— The Dews drew quivering & chill— For only Gossamer, my Gown— My Tippet—only Tulle— We paused before a House that seemed A Swelling of the Ground— The Roof was scarcely visible— The Cornice—in the Ground— Since then—'tis Centuries—and yet Feels shorter than the Day I first surmised the Horses' Heads Were toward Eternity— by Emily Dickinson... 100 greatest poems... I really like poems...do you?

When I was a kid, I used to write ample poems. But now I don't feel the urge to write poems anymore. Now I even don't feel the urge to read poems. But I still remember the poems I read in my school syllabuses. They still take me to a dream world, a world of imagination and fantasies.
