Chalk it up!

Chalk it up/Emily Dickinson Poem

To fill a Gap
Insert the Thing that caused it —
Block it up
With Other — and ‘twill yawn the more —
You cannot solder an Abyss
With Air.

— Emily Dickinson

    I like the sidewalk gap you’ve chosen to go with the poem! And what a terrific poem it is.

    Yes — and I’m pleased with the blue lines Vincent added for emphasis. :o)
