Poems about finger
That It Return
afraid to trust the morn
if he fear to swerve
his fingers, if he pass,
he touched me, so i live to know
how well i knew the light before
but searching i could see
as much of noon as i could take
that person that i was
without design that i could trace
i have heard but one
i only know no curricle that rumble there
there'll be that dark parade
may be easier reached this way
too plummetless that it return
This Death's Experiment
the dying need but little, dear,
or is this death's experiment
this was all
contenteder if once
no hunger had she nor an inn
is gotten not of fingers
The Fingers Hurried
the harm they did was short and since
were greater than itself though he
there leaving out a man
tell him just how the fingers hurried
I Shall Never Tell!
i lived on dread; to those who know
show me them said i
how could i of him?
i pray him too explore
i am not used to hope
but i shall never tell!
i'd rather be the one
i only have it not tonight
i shall know why when time is over
tell him the page i didn't write
for mine to look at when i liked
and push it with my fingers next
I'd So Much Joy I Took My Hand
she feels some ghastly fright come up
came once a world did you?
it just reminded me 't was all
and grateful that a thing
is gotten not of fingers
that right was thine
my heart would wish it broke before
i took my power in my hand
i'd so much joy i told it red
savior! i've no one else to tell
so say if queen it be
that i cannot must be
a wife at daybreak i shall be
for i was once a child
I Thought It Until
his merit all my fear
that when their conscious fingers cease
and i have ceased to wonder why
we miss her, not because we see
i thought it would be opposite
then i had counted it until
Hope It Would Be Too Surrendered
the bee is not afraid of me,
that i could fear a door,
how goblin it would be
to whom this would have pointed me
tell him just how the fingers hurried
hope it was that kept me warm
if the life be too surrendered
to be alive is power
when one turned smiling to the land
it only moved as do the suns
some one the sum could tell
Chid My Fingers
and lest i cry
i woke and chid my honest fingers,
i've diamonds on my fingers
but when spades had done
and came my way no more,
and put it in the drawer,
and now before the door
a day when it was not,
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
It Seemed The Lonely Road,
and dwell a little everywhere
a stranger pressed a kingdom,
upon the lonely road,
light laughs the breeze in her castle of sunshine;
a wind with fingers goes,
since heaven and he are one,
oh the earth was made for lovers, for damsel, and hopeless swain,
what more the woman can,
death is but one and comes but once
it seemed the common way,
why, look out for the little brook in march,
all things do go a courting, in earth, or sea, or air,
myself and it, in majesty
and all day long, with dance and game,
without that forcing, in my breath
When Spades Had For Less
would'st thou seek so just say
when frightened home to thee i run
and push it with my fingers next
on the heads that started with us
and then it's time to strike my tent
we talk in careless and it toss
but once aslant
but when spades had done
were had for less
our souls saw just as well
Then No Me
that when their conscious fingers cease
on the heads that started with us
rejected be of her?
creation stopped for me
thee then no me
me prove it now whoever doubt
then look for me, be sure you say
could take it
Life Is Gotten Not Of It
a sepulchre, fears frost, no more
and hold no higher than the plain
who knows but we'd reach the sun?
was all the one that fell
on here and there a creature
is difficult, and still
is gotten not of fingers
some secret that was pushing
i've known her from an ample nation
life is what we make of it
the single to some lives,
then space began to toll,
in kingdoms you have heard the raised
and after that there's heaven
But We Might Learn To Be Ended
no more he singeth mournful, her sadness she doth lose,
and you got sleepy and begged to be ended
and push it with my fingers next
not for the sorrow, done me
but we might learn to like the heaven,
it takes me all the while to poise
what comfort was it wisdom was
but dying is a different way
pounce on his bruises one say or three
when we inspect that's audible
the mold-life all forgotten now
you and eternity the
the general heavens upon
What Plenty It Slant
not pursued by learned angels
not if the just suspect me
tell all the truth but tell it slant
my faith must take the purple wheel
you are sure there's such a person
that yours and mine should be,
what plenty it would be
that would not let the will
the saved will tell
when it was dark enough to do
it would be life
and then it's out of sight
and at my finger's end
and not the pillow at your cheek
It Will Be Ample Time
take not my liberty
and then abroad the world he go
and where his feet have run
and at my finger's end
it will be ample time for me
make summer when the lady lie
no one could play it the second time
and when at night our good day done
The Former
who own esteem the opulence
are one and yet the former
i've known her from an ample nation
on that dear frame the years had worn
the stiff heart questions was it he, that bore,
why, i will lend until just then,
and wonder how the fingers feel
it's all i have to bring today
you cannot put a fire out
A Comb,
as if they just repressed
that calm is but a wall
and a suspicion, like a finger
the grass divides as with a comb,
and left the little angle worm
and one below this morning
there came one drop of giant rain,
it's cooler than the dawn
it's thoughts and just one heart
a little road not made of man
is not a controvertible
The Syntax
why do they shut me out of heaven?
that certain as it comes
the thought to be alive
say if it's really warm at noon
i had not had but for yourself
neither place need i present him
but were it told to me today
tell him i only said the syntax
but tell him that it ceased to feel
that when i could not find it
tell him just how the fingers hurried
some touch it, and some kiss it
so foreign to my own,
the love, tho', will array me right
and leave me just my a b c,
In The Meal-sack Didn't Catch Then,
i made the bed up for him there to-night,
that the man with the meal-sack didn't catch then,
had wound strings round and round it like a bundle,
there was never a sound beside the wood but one,
but still lies pointed as it plowed the dust,
i have outwalked the furthest city light,
and over the walls i have wended;
i have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
in hopes of seeing the calm of heaven break
for its suggestion of what dreams!
that fate had made thee for the pleasure of the wind,
holding the curve of one position,
They Plant Dead Trees For Long, They Never
and put him on his guard, "silas is back,"
her fingers moved the latch for all reply,
and caught me splitting wood in the yard,
they plant dead trees for living, and the dead
and from there those that lifted eyes could count
so low for long, they never right themselves,
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
Through The Last Went, Heavy With Dew,
or room within a room, of hickory poles,
without a window light,
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
before the last went, heavy with dew,
across the handle's long, drawn serpentine,
she's glad the birds are gone away,
"what was it, dear?"and she had given all
after so many years he still keeps finding
had now persisted in the woods so long
then sit down in the middle of them all,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
to white rest, and a place of rest
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
That The Garden Round
then lets it snap back upright in the sky,
that the birds there in all the garden round
to the ancient lands where it left the shells
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
the heart can think of no devotion
with only strength of the fighting arm
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
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,
Showed Him, Through A Finger Length
and in the hush we joined to make
and then come back to it and begin over,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
and so at last to learn to use their wings,
though we choose greatly, still to lack
and to do that to birds was why she came,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
and making the best of their way back to life
to the dark and lament,
and showed him, through a manhole in the floor,
and impulse, having dipped a finger length
wrap him for shroud in a petal,
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,
Striking, Break Their Own;
had wound strings round and round it like a bundle,
and reaching up with a little knife,
throwing a leg up over our fence of mountains,
and slept, the log that shifted with a jolt
and every fleck of russet showing clear,
a sort of catch-all full of attic clutter,
of new wood and old where the woodpecker chops;
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
assorted characters of death and blight
of carrying his pillow in his teeth;
upon the full moon's side of the first haycock
for heaven and the future's sakes,
her fingers moved the latch for all reply,
spares to strike for the common good,
In A Pile Of Wood For Which
and in a little a french touch in that,
and pinned with a silver pin,
and a chain at his side,
and in a little a french touch in that,
and then there was a pile of wood for which
and impulse, having dipped a finger length
Far Off The Middle,
where bird and flower were one and the same,
among bare maple boughs, and in the rare
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
like the elves in the wood?
something down there to smile at in the dust,
but from sheer morning gladness at the brim,
and a chain at his side,
part of a moon was falling down the west,
and the nature of time and space,
the picture pride of hollywood,
the deed of gift was many deeds of war
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
and have stopped dying now forever,
and still the bird revisited her young,
