Will there really be a morning?
Is there such a thing as day?
Could I see it from the mountains
If I were as tall as they?
Has it feet like water lilies?
Has it feathers like a bird?

Oh, some wise man from the skies!
Please to tell a little pilgrim
Where the place called morning lies!
~ Emily Dickinson
