Poems about leaf
Exactly As The Grace So Unavoidable
the grace so unavoidable
exactly as the world
the leaf at love turned back
nay hold it it is calm
retreat was out of hope
they doubt to witness it
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
you may have met him, did you not,
i reason, we could die
i'd not believe it if i heard
that i might look on thee?
i wonder if it hurts to live,
except that you than he
i'd rather be the one
i never saw a moor;
There He Didn't See,
but a leaf that lingered brown,
if design govern in a thing so small,
but were always a rose,
blind creature; and a while he didn't see,
the bridegroom wished he knew,
there he had built his stolen shack,
though doubtful whether he stayed to see,
to seek the brook if still it ran;
to the ancient lands where it left the shells
and thought of doing something to the shore
and brush the mow with the summer load,
up to the brim, and even above the brim,
they turn their back on the land,
A Daunting Look,
and turned on him with such a daunting look,
and a chain at his side,
leaving on one wire tooth a lock of hair,
the white clouds over them on,
yet for them the lilac renewed its leaf,
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
of heavenly stars with hugger-mugger farming,
with the curves of his axe-helves and his having
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
in a thrush's breast,
and cut a flower beside a ground bird's nest
The Lilac Renewed Its Leaf,
then lets it snap back upright in the sky,
the flowers they plucked
yet for them the lilac renewed its leaf,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
Where His Job, When He Loves;
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
and then he'd crow as if he thought that child's play
where his job, when he wasn't selling tickets,
in time, had she not realized her danger
the sound was behind me instead of before,
of bending like a sword across the knee,
a sort of catch-all full of attic clutter,
more blameless in the sense of being less
the more of right the more he loves;
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
the mower in the dew had loved them thus,
yet for them the lilac renewed its leaf,
