Poems about barn
I Can Do I Who Heard It
need you unto him
give spices unto men
a woman white to be
better than music! for i who heard it
or if it sometime showed as 'twill
but just a crumb to me
when going to the barn
to think just how the fire will burn
what i can do i will
i might have chanced that way!
i'm sure 'tis india all day
i'll bear it better now
what if they hear me!
Only A Bee Will Miss It Home
how he stretched his anguish to us
her needle would not go
as some she never knew
as even while i looked dissolved
that time to take it home
when going to the barn
only a bee will miss it
happy it be for you a beggar's
when choice of life is past
that is the break of day!
parting is all we know of heaven,
the wind didn't come from the orchard today
the quiet ages picked it up
Then, As For That Would Have Joined The
in airy dalliance,
and her in the angle of house and barn
the clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
that would have joined the house in flame
had worn them really about the same,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
though as for that the passing there
as if she played unheard the tenderness
Where The New-beginning Brooks
it keeps the pressure of a ladder-round,
where the grist of the new-beginning brooks
and her in the angle of house and barn
from growing under pavements of a town;
at one stroke of a match, brad had to turn
enough at least to buy tobacco with,
and so at last to learn to use their wings,
to each the boulders that have fallen to each,
to better its perch for the night,
they plant dead trees for living, and the dead
and living people, and things they understand,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns
that tinged the atmosphere,
Now The World Burned Black
as where some flower lay withering on the ground,
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
was gum, the gum of the mountain spruce,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
leaves and bar, leaves and bark,
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
the spoils of the dead,
visions of half the world burned black
and her in the angle of house and barn
Before The Angle Of Something Interposed Between Their
a weapon in our human fight,' he said,
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
he calls on change through the violence of the elements,
of something interposed between their sight
and whispers with a sort of stifled bark,
before the coming of the snow,
and her in the angle of house and barn
then sit down in the middle of them all,
out through the fields and the woods
and knock to the echoes as beggars for roses,
next to nothing for use,
were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
Like Stanchions In The Night,
something inspires the only cow of late
he is scornful of folk his scorn cannot reach,
and the pear is, and so's
that's standing by the mother, it's so young,
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
the bird was not to blame for his key,
to see if the birds lived the first night through,
like stanchions in the barn, from floor to ceiling,
one back and forward, in and out of shadow,
that wrought on him beside her in the night,
like winter and evening coming on together,
With Only Strength Of Dauntless Wings,
the more of right the more he loves;
and the nature of time and space,
for thought has a pair of dauntless wings,
with only strength of the fighting arm
the fen had every kind of bloom,
that trouble the sleep of lumber folk,
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
and work was little in the house,
the barn opposed across the way,
that struck the earth,
pointed the decimal off with one deep thrust,
Across The Flame Tip-down And Ask,
his hands? she had to look, and ask,
as he went out and in to fetch the cows
like stanchions in the barn, from floor to ceiling,
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
and wished her heart in a case of gold
he discovers that the greatness of love lies not in forward-looking
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
of something interposed between their sight
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
a narrow passage all the way around,
it put the flame tip-down and dabbed the grass
this saying good-bye on the edge of the dark
across the lines of straighter darker trees,
before the coming of the snow,
Her In The Sound Was Behind Me
the sound was behind me instead of before,
men of the woods and lumberjacks,
with the breath of many flowers,
and her in the angle of house and barn
to meet him in the doorway with the news
to do with what was in the darkened parlour?
