Poems about climb
To Be Death
stealthy cocoon, why hide you so
"oh could we climb where moses stood,
to him, it would be death
the thought to be alive
The Trick
or tell god how cross we are
i breathed enough to take the trick
the lips i would have cooled, alas
i could climb if i tried, i know
So I Can Hang It Be Thy Will
my sovereign will relent?
that fancied they could hold
he'd climb if he could!
still just as easy, if it be thy will
so i can hang it in my room
we didn't do it tho'!
they "noticed" me they noticed me
i had no cause to be awake
you will not wake them up,"
I Deem Myself What I Cannot Climb Thee
you beg him not to go
i cannot climb thee
i wait thy far, fantastic bells
i deem myself what i would be
oh, if i were the gentleman
and why it was so still
that knows it cannot see
the tint i cannot take is best
nature will that it be night
and yet existence some way back
those who begin today
of expectation also
make frugal ones content
I Read The Way,
we wondered at our blindness
a thought went up my mind to-day
sounds long, until i read the place
it seemed the common way,
but this, might be my brief term
and a hoarse "get out of the way, i say,"
"would'st climb," i said?
who till they died, did not alive become
the thought to be alive
is enough for me
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
i can't tell you but you feel it
i should not dare to leave my friend,
it kept me from a thief, i think,
Or If It Makes No Difference Abroad
a needless life, it seemed to me
it would be life
it makes no difference abroad
the wind didn't come from the orchard today
though life's reward be done
some say it is "the spheres" at play!
and would it feel as big
i wonder how the rich may feel
or if it dare to climb your dizzy knee
then look for me, be sure you say
i should have been too glad, i see
but early, yet, for god
it has no future but itself,
I Was Not Care About It Would Be
who knows but this surrendered face
might some one else so learned be,
could she have guessed that it would be
i had no cause to be awake
and any one i knew
i do not care about it
i could climb if i tried, i know
and gambol i may never name
and when i was not heeding,
then midnight, i have passed from thee
the day must follow too,
i, passing, thought another noon
I Shall Not Feel At Home I Take
without that forcing, in my breath
late when i take my place in summer
i shall not feel at home i know
i cannot climb thee
until he let you in!
knows how to forget!
i mention it to you,
i could suffice for him, i knew
i should not fear the foe then
myself can own the key
and helps us to forget
some touch it, and some kiss it
with those same boots of lead, again,
to gain it, men have borne
As Escapeless Quite
nature hesitate before
when lovers be afar
nowhere to hide my dazzled face
provided it do hopeless hang
as yet my heart be dry
and as escapeless quite
as small they say as i
he'd climb if he could!
if love be just beyond
when was it can you tell
till both can see
but solemnest to know
to wonder what myself will say,
It Is The Tyranny
nor whose the tyranny
it is the white exploit
one anguish in a crowd
more mountains then a sea
he'd climb if he could!
as dying say it does
say "when tomorrow comes this way
that after horror that 'twas us
i shall be perfect in his sight
that every time i wake
that last day that i was a life
it was a different tune
as if it held but the might of a child
Attireth That It Now Whoever Doubt
me prove it now whoever doubt
it don't sound so terrible quite as it did
i'm used to that
so i the ships may see
i could climb if i tried, i know
did i sing too loud?
attireth that it hear
would you be the fool to stay?
what would i give to see his face?
that i might look on thee?
i wonder how the rich may feel
I Cannot Speak
and entertain despair
and yet existence some way back
further than that
too far the strength
till we are less afraid
and yet we guessed it not
because he knows it cannot speak
cannot perish, though it fail
i cannot climb thee
and thou not there
thee then no me
my need of thee be done
i wonder how the rich may feel
They Seemed To Hear Us Talk
i left you in the morning,
the mower in the dew had loved them thus,
that fate had made thee for the pleasure of the wind,
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
and nothing to look backward to with pride,
what brought the kindred spider to that height,
to wash the steps with pail and rag,
where someone used to climb and crawl
you come to fetch me from my work to-night
to hear us talk
the universe seems cramped to you and me,
they seemed to fail the bluebirds under them
for the shocks and changes we need to keep us sane,
to find that the utmost reward
and yet too ready to believe the most,
I'm Going Out To You And Thing Next
i'm going out to clean the pasture spring;
i'd like to go by climbing a birch tree,
change like this to a deeper roar?
to tell them "supper,"at the word, the saw,
the universe seems cramped to you and me,
and thing next most diffuse to cloud,
The Advantages It Has, So Long And So
to drum on the floor with scurrying hoofs
but the black spread like black death on the ground,
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
not yet the little dotted in me seek,
they cannot look in deep,
for the shocks and changes we need to keep us sane,
and so we went with pail and can
where someone used to climb and crawl
here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
