Poems about attention
Take The Dead We Love To Sit,
though thine attention stop not on me
as by the dead we love to sit,
and take the sunshine in my hands,
and life would all be spring!
A Darting Fear A Tear
a darting fear a pomp a tear
endow the living with the tears
then close the valves of her attention
the whole of me forever
But Just Held Two, Nor Those It Was
afraid to trust the morn
to answer wherefore when he pass
it was announced to me
it just held two, nor those it held
as it has usual done
but just to look it in the eye
on the heads that started with us
but, looking back the first so seems
i keep it, staying at home
midnight good night! i hear them call,
though thine attention stop not on me
But Our Rapt Attention
death, but our rapt attention
he seek conviction, that be this
for fear it would be gone
we should not mind so small a flower
but did not finish, some way back,
admitted scarcely to itself, it may be,
Thought Belong To Love, But Since
though thine attention stop not on me
tell him just how the fingers hurried
but death had told her so the first
i've heard my father tell
tell me what time the weaver sleeps
why do they shut me out of heaven?
nor could i rise with you
i did not know the year then
nor had i time to love, but since
thought belong to him who gave it
yet both so well knew me
it has no future but itself,
it makes an even face
it only moved as do the suns
had let its pleasure through
That We But Recollect The Page I Didn't
though thine attention stop not on me
tell him the page i didn't write
that we but recollect the one
if just as soon as breath is out
as far as death this way
and if the further heaven
Too Rescued Fear Too Rescued Fear Too Rescued
but our anticipation
the wind didn't come from the orchard today
you guessed from the way the sentence toiled
when they let go the ignominy smiling
let me think i'm sure
must tell!
too rescued fear too dim to me
her least attention raise on me
i took my power in my hand
a 'blossom just when i went in
if you should get there first
When One Has Failed To Put My Piece
death, but our rapt attention
the worm doth woo the mortal, death claims a living bride,
a fear will urge it where
when one has failed to stop them
the loss had been to me
if joy to put my piece away
