We are working on the musical arrangement of A little road not made of man by Emily Dickinson and it will be published:

on a date yet to be decided

A little road not made of man,
Enabled of the eye,
Accessible to thill of bee,
Or cart of butterfly.

If town it have, beyond itself,
'T is that I cannot say;
I only sigh, — no vehicle
Bears me along that way.
