Here a star, and there a star,
Some lose their way.
Here a mist, and there a mist,
Afterwards—day!
From Our share of night to bear, Emily Dickinson (1830 – 1886)

From Our share of night to bear, Emily Dickinson (1830 – 1886)
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
For I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons.
From The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock by T.S. Eliot (1888 – 1948)
