Short Poems - Short Love Poems

The Sea
    by Emily Dickinson

An everywhere of silver,
With ropes of sand
To keep it from effacing
The track called land.

Forbidden Fruit
    by Emily Dickinson

Forbidden fruit a flavor has
That lawful orchards mocks;
How luscious lies the pea within
The pod that Duty locks!

A Book
    by Emily Dickinson

There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!
