600 <br /> <br />It troubled me as once I was— <br />For I was once a Child— <br />Concluding how an Atom—fell— <br />And yet the Heavens—held— <br /> <br />The Heavens weighed the most—by far— <br />Yet Blue—and solid—stood— <br />Without a Bolt—that I could prove— <br />Would Giants—understand? <br /> <br />Life set me larger—problems— <br />Some I shall keep—to solve <br />Till Algebra is easier— <br />Or simpler proved—above— <br /> <br />Then—too—be comprehended— <br />What sorer—puzzled me— <br />Why Heaven did not break away— <br />And tumble—Blue—on me—<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-troubled-me-as-once-i-was/
