Eden Is That Old Fashioned House, By: Emily Dickinson

October 10, 2026 by Editors

pc

Eden is that old fashioned House
We dwell in every day,
Without suspecting our abode
Until we drive away.
How fair, on looking back, the Day
We sauntered from the door,
Unconscious our returning
Discover it no more.
