661 <br /> <br />Could I but ride indefinite <br />As doth the Meadow Bee <br />And visit only where I liked <br />And No one visit me <br /> <br />And flirt all Day with Buttercups <br />And marry whom I may <br />And dwell a little everywhere <br />Or better, run away <br /> <br />With no Police to follow <br />Or chase Him if He do <br />Till He should jump Peninsulas <br />To get away from me— <br /> <br />I said "But just to be a Bee" <br />Upon a Raft of Air <br />And row in Nowhere all Day long <br />And anchor "off the Bar" <br /> <br />What Liberty! So Captives deem <br />Who tight in Dungeons are.<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/could-i-but-ride-indefinite/
