1510 <br /> <br />How happy is the little Stone <br />That rambles in the Road alone, <br />And doesn't care about Careers <br />And Exigencies never fears— <br />Whose Coat of elemental Brown <br />A passing Universe put on, <br />And independent as the Sun <br />Associates or glows alone, <br />Fulfilling absolute Decree <br />In casual simplicity—<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/how-happy-is-the-little-stone/
