because he knows it cannot speak
when one learn how
when cerements let go
i wonder if it hurts to live,
Modest, Let Us Walk Among It
"oh lord how frail are we"!
not yet, our eyes can see
modest, let us walk among it
and then i come away,
I Cannot Be Borne
too hungry to be borne
alone, i cannot be
i could not bear the bees should come,
i never would let go
'tis Pain's Successor When The Breath
'tis pain's successor when the soul
'tis miracle behind between
blew out itself for fear
just let go the breath
Too Proud For Pride
too vague the face
meek let it be too proud for pride
be sure you're sure you know
and they'll slant
If He Let Me Lead Him In
so he let me lead him in

if he were living dare i ask
i knew no more of want or cold
Then The Bride, And Prance Again,
conviction might, of me
contented, known, before
will peep, and prance again,
the bride, and then the bridegroom, the two, and then the one,
and so the night became,
and then i started too,
and i had put away
the heart i carried in my own
i'll seek his royal feet
and then it's time to strike my tent
so i let him lead me home,
So He Let Me

what if i file this mortal off
contenteder if once
i want was chief it said

Not On A Gem!
in dreams i see them rise,
to keep the dark away,
when it goes, 't is like the distance
how better, than a gem!
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
they're here, though; not a creature failed
remind him, would it not, somewhat
and made as he would eat me up
and leave me standing there,
he had not on a crown indeed,
if you would like to borrow,
but swear, and i will let you by,
not yet, our eyes can see
you could hear the bodice tug, behind you
and back it slid and i alone
To Break For Peace Prepares
if pain for peace prepares
to break for you
when they let go the ignominy smiling
although i knew to take it
The Drop Of Anguish
i shall forget the drop of anguish
to one who never felt it blaze
because he knows and
that as myself could pity him
to every creature that i met
you would not know it from the drifts
the heaven you know to understand
tell him just how she sealed you cautious!
when night is almost done
and let you from a dream
it tried to be a rose
and see the people going by
and know no other way
dreams are well but waking's better,
and then it doesn't stay
Enlightened To A Wrong
enlightened to a larger pain
the carriage held but just ourselves
would not the fun
but could not make them fit,

appealing to myself,
ambition cannot find him,
nor could i rise with you
it always felt to me a wrong
i heard it hit the ground
it's such a little thing to weep
If It Serve You From A Dream
will not cry with joy "pompeii"!
"and i for truth themself are one
and if it serve you for a house
and let you from a dream
when i could take it in my hand
It Held Two, Nor Those It Held Two,
for pang of jealousy
which anguish was the utterest then
and that by right that he
as if the house were his
had he the power to dream
who'll let me out some gala day
how just this time, some perfect year
where you had put me down
some one the sum could tell,
it just held two, nor those it held
he had not on a crown indeed,
my reward for being, was this,
i started early, took my dog,
the love, tho', will array me right
it was not night, for all the bells
So I Could Fear A Door,
that some are like my own,
that i could fear a door,
she cannot keep her place,
i will forget the light,
i never saw the sea;
so i let him lead me home,
and he was barefoot, i'm afraid!
you said that i "was great" one day
is it dead find it
Before My Dream
when they let go the ignominy smiling
nor will he like the dumb
too vague the face
forgive it last
before my simple bosom broke
it blistered to my dream
by it my title take
that sufficeth me
it puzzled me to know
alike to him one
too vague the face
death doubts it argues from the ground
and the earth they tell me
That At The Last, It Was Not Frost,
then veil my too inspecting face
it was not frost, for on my flesh
that at the last, it should not be a novel agony
so he let me lead him in
Yet We Do Life's Labor
if he dissolve then there is nothing more
sometimes not often in eternity
therefore we do life's labor
and yet we guessed it not
but won't you wish you'd spared one
yet not too far to come at call
so therefore let me in,"
fitter to see him, i may be
when act and will are done
Lest That Would Not Which, Desire, Or Grant
lest that should conquer me,
can go, itself, without a fan
and what itself, will say to me
i know not which, desire, or grant
if town it have beyond itself
when earth cannot be had
the court is far away
but the man within
they might as wise have lodged a bird
if any sink, assure that this, now standing
that would not let the will
to lose if one can find again
i found the phrase to every thought
The Hills Have A Thief Quick Startled
justified through calvaries of love
of all the birds that be
and life would all be spring!
when choice of life is past
her polar time behind
himself to him a fortune
grief is a thief quick startled
the hills have a way then
then eddies like a rose away
but turning back 'twas slow
and would not let the seconds by
each little doubt and fear,
Parting Is All We Both Pray
they leave us with the infinite,
parting is all we know of heaven,
that i might have the sky
i never would let go
god grows above so those who pray
and we both pray
we temples build i said
it may be wilderness without
you hear a being drop
what right have i to be a bride
to stop and tell them where it is
He Can Lean Against The Way I To
this is the sovereign anguish!
of the significance of this
where is the may
you almost feel the date
the way i read a letter's this
what right have i to be a bride
of which i have never heard?
that i could ascertain
an awe if it should be like that
the things that death will buy
he can lean against the grave,
and like the trees, look down
and risen up and gone away,
and he and i, perplex us
But How The Fire Will Burn
and then to lay them quiet back
to think just how the fire will burn
where i put it down
because he knows it cannot speak
but how he set, i know not,
that never did alight,
i never would let go
he touched me, so i live to know
That You Than He
so trust him, comrade
the wisdom it be so
that took its cambric way
for somewhat that it saw?
out of sight?
what of that?
except that you than he
but their completeless show
a doubt if it be us
so when 't was time to see,
that such was not the posture
it was the brave columbus,
the sky is low, the clouds are mean,
to show the sun the way
like the june bee before the school boy,
i used to when a boy
But The Success Was His It To Beside
from the belief that somewhere
but the success was his it seems
and whom you told it to beside
and you should live
are so high up you see
so still so cool
so many drops of vital scarlet
in easy even dazzling pace
that they are beautiful
be beautiful as they prepare
time feels so vast that were it not
there's somewhat prouder, over there
since none of them are mine,
that did it tear all day,
foot of the bold did least attempt it
Joy To The Fool To Stay?
our mortal consequence
joy to have merited the pain
can the ecstasy define
the easier to let go
could give them any pause;
the grave would hinder me,
that some there be too numb to notice
who'd be the fool to stay?
but they that go,
or better, run away
that from you or i,
now to the application, to the reading of the roll,
put the thought in advance a year
It Be Too Proud For Pride
confronting eyes long comforted
he waking finds the flower there
meek let it be too proud for pride
it must mean that i'm sure
I Could Not Hold A Sigh
patience is the smile's exertion
it could not hold a sigh
tell me how far the morning leaps
she could not find her yes
because he knows it cannot speak
because i could not stop for death,
since i could never find her
that had i ballet knowledge
i could have touched!
some know him whom we knew
I Could I Could Not Rather Die,
than letting him surmise?
could i do else with mine?
they would not rather die,
'twas not my blame who sped too slow
what shall i do it whimpers so
i could not feel the anguish go
i could not bear the bees should come,
i said "but just to be a bee"
enters with a "you know me sir"?
"oh lord how frail are we"!
when i shall be "forgiven"
i'd give to live that hour again
neither place need i present him
the day that i shall go
to forfeit thee?
the very name
Permitted Face To Be A Rose
it may be wilderness without
as far as it could see
it tried to be a rose
permitted face to face to be
the easier to let go
because it's sunday all the time
insert the thing that caused it
the life is thick i know it!
oh, dear, i guess if he were a boy
had i not this, or this, i said,
But, Looking Back The Easier To Have The
and if the further heaven
except the dying this to us
the easier to let go
when was it can you tell
and then, if it should be
if you should get there first
if i should bribe the little bird
not all the snows could make it white
to have the joy of feeling it again
it would never be common more i said
but, looking back the first so seems
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
except that you than he
as that same watcher, when the east
"my Business But A Boundless Place To Me
and fear is like the one
as that the slave is gone,
while he was making one
he forgot and i remembered
i shan't need it then
you will know i'm trying
how they will tell the story
some that never lay
and let him hear it drip
it was a boundless place to me
"my business but a life i left
where was once a room
so miserable a sound at first
Because He Knows How To Give Your Core
and fear is like the one
but this, must be a different wealth
be judgment what it may
not subject to despair
forgive me, if the grave come slow
did i not take it from the ways
and let you from a dream
to give your core a look
and no man is the one
it is not of the bird
that we but recollect the one
because he knows it cannot speak
where dawn knows how to be
The Loss Of The Haze
the worthiness of suffering like
and that side of the haze
the loss of an estate
the sun in place no other fraud
this is my letter to the world
To Him, It Would Be If That Please
forgive us, if as days decline
when one has failed to stop them
the way i read a letter's this
i, a less divine
and i, bewildered, stand
and he will tell you skill is late
the world, will have its own to do
not all the snows could make it white
we learn to know the planks
how they will tell the story
then "great" it be if that please thee
to him, it would be death
This Is Green
so he let me lead him in
so brave upon its little bed
the angels happening that way
tastes death the first to hand the sting
the color of the grave is green
this is my letter to the world
was like the other days
no dead, were ever carried down
from what would last till heads like mine
so sure i'd come so sure i'd come
i wonder if it weighs like mine,
and would it feel as big
sweet, to have had them lost
yet she cannot speak,
That I Left The Will
you left me boundaries of pain
i felt it publish in my eye
i'm confident that bravoes
i left the place, with all my might
that would not let the will
it cannot be again
'twas more i cannot mention
i wished they'd stay away
i knew not but the next
that i could fear a door,
that ever rocked a child,
As Other Creatures, That Have I
such spirit makes her perpetual mention,
as other creatures, that have eyes
and so, i thought the other way,
if i could see you in a year,
when we are new and small,
and kindly ask it in
until he let you in!
till love that was and love too best to be
since for the queen, have i
till i who was almost bold
i had been hungry, all the years
and later when we die
That Would Be
as if my soul were deaf and dumb
i shut my eyes and groped as well
and i dropped down, and down
and thread the dews, all night, like pearls
they called me to the window, for
the need did not reduce
that when i could not find it
where i put it down
that would not let the will
could she have guessed that it would be
where i put it down
and any one i knew
my eyes just turned to see,
so you could see what moved them so
When We Turned To The World
nor tell the loving forests
this is my letter to the world
not present on the year
upon the further hand
and when we turned to note the growth
you did not state your price
we shall never know
my need of thee be done
the heaven unexpected come,
we are the birds that stay,
where morning just begun
That Caused It
this merit hath the worst
when farther parted, than the common woe
but doom me not to forfeit thee
could take it
insert the thing that caused it
that there be standing here
it only moved as do the suns
when they let go the ignominy smiling
not either noticed death
To Know Not Caused It Does
never for society
to know just how he suffered would be dear
came once a world did you?
as dying say it does
to no one that you know
i'd give i'd give my life of course
had it for me a morn
and i'd like to look a little more
just looking round to see how far
it might be easier
the lonesome for they know not what
whether to keep the secret
beauty be not caused it is
that would not let the will
As Far As One Should Get There First
pervaded her, we thought
almost as if they cared
failed like themselves and conscious that it rose
then look for me, be sure you say
the bee is not afraid of me,
or think of, with a sigh
and i'd like to look a little more
that they remember me;
that would not let the will
they doubt to witness it
if you should get there first
as one should come to town
that lives like dollars must be piled
yet small she sighs if all is all
as far as it could see
Her On A Cloud
ourselves are conscious he exist
bold were it enemy brief were it friend
as harass us like life and death
like let of snow
and next i met her on a cloud
her steady boat be seen
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
I'd Give My Father Tell
i cried at pity not at pain
i am poor once more!
i've heard my father tell
oh, had you told me so
like hammers did they know they fell
as by the dead we love to sit,
i see thee better for the years
who'll let me out some gala day
i'd give my biggest bobolink!
the only shows i see
but just before the snows
i'd bring them every flower that grows
Not Stop For Me To Prate About It!
heaven is shy of earth that's all
denotes there be a sea
there is one farther than you
not for me to prate about it!
i would not stop for night, or storm
therefore, as one returned, i feel
but he is mastered, now,
that would not let the will
Some Way Back
others must resist
that they are beautiful
eyes were not meant to know,
but nobody was there!
'twas this on tables i had seen
some know him whom we knew
let me think i'm sure
and yet existence some way back
some things that fly there be
For It Worked So
may seize upon his mind
when they let go the ignominy smiling
you almost pitied it you it worked so
so infinite when gone
too plummetless that it return
should reach the heart that wanted me
for it would split his heart, to know it
does not so much as turn his head
it was not death, for i stood up,
Because Because Because Because Because Because Because If
than letting him surmise?
he comes just so far toward the town
gave even as to all
myself who bore it do
and if i do when morning comes
the thinking how they walked alive
how prayer would feel to me
what come of him at night
as we who never can
with them would harbor be
nor could i rise with you
the tint i cannot take is best
because because if he should die
i would rather be
neither would be a queen
Who Knows But At The Face
the distance would not haunt me so
and what itself, will say to me
how foreign that can be
it would be life
yet not too far to come at call
who knows but at the sight of that
that sense was breaking through
turn it, a little full in the face
i used to when a boy
and put a stone to keep it warm
forget! the lady with the amulet
tell him just how she sealed you cautious!
i'm not afraid to know
We See
they fling their speech
we miss her, not because we see
and if i do when morning comes
and then a day as huge
be beautiful as they prepare
if they would linger for a bird
but both belong to me,
that i dare to tell?
but swear, and i will let you by,
That They Have Done Expecting Me Think I'm
i fear me this circumference
i'll tell thee all how bald it grew
i've nothing else to bring, you know
that they have done expecting me
let me think i'm sure
of meeting them afraid
he'll take it scan it step aside
I'll Bear It Was Not Death, For I
that knows it cannot see
i'll bear it better now
you cannot prick with saw
it was not death, for i stood up,
as we went out and in
and we know not
i never would let go
The Honorable Work
just let go the breath
just that you should see
the power to be true to you,
to take the honorable work
the saved will tell
i never thought to see
i only have it not tonight
the only one i meet
yet precious as the house
to this world she returned,
if i may have it, when it's dead,
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
I Started Too,
nature and god i neither knew
when heaven was too common to miss
we miss her, not because we see
but swear, and i will let you by,
and then i started too,
this, too, i endured
contented, known, before
midsummer, was it, when they died
somehow, it will be even
i could not deem it late to hear
Let Me Up
let me not shame their sublime deportments
see where it hurt me that's enough
an awe if it should be like that
since a rack couldn't coax a syllable now,
but the least fan
and came my way no more,
as far from mine, as if no plight
but came another day
were the day year long,
the taleless days went on
and made as he would eat me up
Tell That The Other Truth
if he perceive the other truth
let not my witness hinder them
some lose their way!
for his beloved need
to stay behind with just the toys
tell that the worst, is easy in a moment
parting is all we know of heaven,
What I Am Coming Too
like let of snow
and that i am coming too
what i can do i will
was dying as he thought or different
one more "ye blessed" to be told
I Cannot Say
and let him hear it drip
nor can you tell me
and we know not
let's play those never come!
that i cannot say
till we are less afraid
just let go the breath
to make me fairest of the earth
i hope the father in the skies
so he let me lead him in
what death knows so well
It Should Be Like That
nor we so much as check our speech
it is easy to work when the soul is at play
so go your way and i'll go mine
i'll do thy will
most i love the cause that slew me,
an awe if it should be like that
death did not notice me,
i mention it to you,
that would not let the will
what will become of me?
The World
and overtaken in the dark
the light his action, and the dark
this is my letter to the world
it takes me all the while to poise
it only moved as do the suns
the fact of famine could not be
of shrinking ways she did not fright
But I Was Never In!
i shall not fear the snow,
alone, i cannot be
i was never in!
if those i loved were found
but i have not a crest,
if love be just beyond
what and if it be
too young that any should suspect
let me not shame their sublime deportments
Because The Bee Delirious Borne
as do the bee delirious borne
he longer must than i
they struggle some for breath
suffice us for a crowd
an ample letter how you miss
because the winds would find it out
this put away
you'll know her by her vest
But Just To Look It Up
give little anguish
when they let go the ignominy smiling
and yet existence some way back
when one turned smiling to the land
but just to look it in the eye
but which the cheek
the quiet ages picked it up
yet why so little sound myself
how mean to those that see
we miss her, not because we see
If Any Sink, Assure That At The Last,
upon my thronging mind
and it will ache contented on
caresses and is gone
and i tip drunken
i deem that i with but a crumb
if any sink, assure that this, now standing
all this and more if i should tell
that gathered this, today!
that at the last, it should not be a novel agony
did you ever look in a cannon's face
and let you from a dream
As A Drama
one anguish in a crowd
due promptly as a drama
ceases to be a secret then
and let you from a dream
we come to look with gratitude
forgive me, if the grave come slow
as if a kingdom cared!
they ask but our delight
where presence is denied them,
and day that was behind were one
and when the sung go down
taught me by time the lower way
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 Cerements Let Go The Breath
just let go the breath
when cerements let go
what would i give to see his face?
i would not mind the journey there
that you be not ashamed
cannot perish, though it fail
if he fear to swerve
how mean to those that see
and wonder we could care
i could not tell the date of mine,
that i could fear a door,
perhaps you'd like to buy a flower,
touch liberty then know no more,
and why it was so still
i got so i could stir the box
Promise This When Frightened Home To Be Dear
unable they that love to die
and the earth they tell me
when frightened home to thee i run
just to be poor for barefoot vision
to know just how he suffered would be dear
neither place need i present him
so he let me lead him in
what word had they for me?
for they've never gone
promise this when you be dying
and wishes had he any
and how if he be dead
were all that i could see
Would Not Either Noticed Death Enable Thee
might death enable thee
not either noticed death
so safer guess with just my soul
the pearl the just our thought,
you've seen the color maybe
what more the woman can,
but you have enough of those
and would not let the seconds by
yet she cannot speak,
i'm old enough, today, i'm certain then
and you got sleepy and begged to be ended
i knew so perfect yesterday
just when the grave and i
but then his house is but a step
but when he singeth then
That Some Lose Their Completeless Show
might death enable thee
no summer could for them
as my thought today
but i was twice as bold
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
so still so cool
look too expensive!
that some are like my own,
but their completeless show
some lose their way!
are so high up you see
But Swear, And So Of Woe, Bleak Dreaded
and so of woe, bleak dreaded come,
but, were it two
some one the sum could tell,
i cannot tell the sum,
but swear, and i will let you by,
till that first shout got by,
the bench, where we had toiled
Not Enough For Me?
let me not shame their sublime deportments
what word had they for me?
not if to talk with me
unable they that love to die
and heaven not enough for me
precious to me she still shall be
i'd give her
i'm old enough, today, i'm certain then
i cannot tell the sum,
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
I'll Go Your Way And I'll Go
no numb alarm lest difference come
nor can you tell me
the rainbow never tells me
so therefore let me in,"
when it began, or if there were
and if it had not been so far
and hold no higher than the plain
or early task to do?
not easy to surprise!
so go your way and i'll go mine
what could it hinder so to say?
Nor Can See
the dust, will vex your fame
nor can you tell me
and that is his business not ours
for their sake not for ours
as crew of mountains could afford
when gentlemen can see
for these were only put to death
for evidence it be the grace
that happen on the soul
are nothing to the bee
do not you
could it be madness this?
a tongue to tell him i am true!
the way i read a letter's this
We Tell Thee All How Bald It Doesn't
when they let go the ignominy smiling
and then it doesn't stay
we tell a hurt to cool it
i'll tell thee all how bald it grew
Will Arrive To Seem Like Perfidy,
to seem like perfidy,
could scare us any more!
will arrive to me!
going to him! happy letter!
i'm sorry for the dead today
that something it did do or dare
i felt it publish in my eye
he could suffice for me
and much not understood
possibly but we would rather
Let's Asleep
not all the snows could make it white
i would not mind the journey there
turn on me when i fail or feign,
if you remember, and were saved
might some one else so learned be,
let's play those never come!
to make sure all's asleep
when i go out of time
just one time!
term of light this day begun!
that passed, an hour ago!
touch liberty then know no more,
came once a world did you?
although i knew to take it
Would Not Choose A Book To Know It
so he let me lead him in
i would not choose a book to know
if anybody's friend be dead
because i know it's true
i should have been too saved i see
that i cannot must be
would it stop whining if to thee
So Greater Than The Amulet
without that forcing, in my breath
the soul stares after it, secure
that did it tear all day,
but how he set, i know not,
was large enough for me,
so greater than the gods can show,
the date, and manner, of the shame
and leave the soul alone,
we are the flower thou the sun!
forget! the lady with the amulet
the loved?
The Place, With All My Might
who misery sustain
the sunrise sire compelleth me
include us as they go
and people come
i left the place, with all my might
that he'll mistake and ask for me
That It Could She Have Guessed That It
that heaven if heaven must contain
it could not hold a sigh
that would not let the will
and so and so had been to me,
nor to dream he and me
though i than he may longer live
it will be summer eventually,
could she have guessed that it would be
but that old sort was done
That One, To Be Standing Here
forgive them even as myself
i shall know why when time is over
that there be standing here
that i could ascertain
we will not drop the dirk
let's play those never come!
i go to elsewhere go no more
some touch it, and some kiss it
what, when the rose is ripe
that is covered too
and mockery was still
the blind esteem it be
that one, to be quite sure
that you never do it
Know No More
and trouble me no more
when it begun or if there were
then there's a pair of us don't tell!
and know no other way
and much can go,
heart, not so heavy as mine
the other, like the little bank
the breaking of the day
always lost the way!
i ever had, but one;
but how ourself, shall be
but swear, and i will let you by,
A Bride
your riches taught me poverty,
god does it every day
to that old moses done
that never had a name
one sister have i in our house,
as by the dead we love to sit,
and lets the morning go
what right have i to be a bride
i learned at least what home could be
i never would let go
if any ask me why
you did not state your price
a picture if it care
if any sink, assure that this, now standing
While It And Comes But One Air
he never saw me in this life
and when i looked again
while it and i lap one air
death is but one and comes but once
the quiet ages picked it up
though it took all my store
not till the last was answered
were going i had often thought
it cannot be again
so say if queen it be
to cheat herself, it seemed she tried
but only to himself is known
is but a symbol of the place
the lady with the amulet will face
and let the fire through
The Ground
lest it fall
when march is scarcely on
death doubts it argues from the ground
and mockery was still
of water and of me
itself can rest upon
the one the other will absorb
the only one i meet
i meant to tell her how i longed
i'd give my biggest bobolink!
ever be induced to do!
what cato couldn't prove me
so sure i'd come so sure i'd come
until he let you in!
her frosts to ponder then it was
Sleep Is So Large
could it be madness this?
sleep is supposed to be
too little way the house must lie
just let go the breath
that right was thine
alas, that wisdom is so large
was such still dwelling there?
as if the sea should part
the second time is set,
I Could Take It Don't Sound So I
the sun and moon must make their haste
of all the souls that stand create
all life to know each other
goes with us just a little way
there seemed to rise a tune
perhaps a home too high
it don't sound so terrible quite as it did
when i could take it in my hand
i have so much to do
perhaps you're going too!
so i can never go!
this way, jesus, let him pass!
The Gash
that frightened but an hour
of meeting them afraid
indignant that the joy was come
the lady with the amulet will face
the garden keep the gash
of the mind of man
and in the grave i see thee best
what shall i do when the skies a'chirrup
but we might learn to like the heaven,
i did not know the year then
i could not deem it late to hear
could i do else with mine?
Pain Is Not Be Haunted
to perish of delight
haply your summer night to charm
and pain is missed in praise
the dying but a syllable
one need not be a chamber to be haunted
their going is not
just his face nothing more!
why make it doubt it hurts it so
that would not let the will
One Need Not Be Done
continual upon me
as grains upon a shore
one need not be a house
the earth has seemed to me a drum,
himself has but to will
even through them this
to him to live was doom
my need of thee be done
meek let it be too proud for pride
I Had No More Eyes
let justice not mistake
i would not paint a picture
i could have done a sin
and i had no more eyes
For Thee!
my justice bleeds for thee!
no need hadst thou of us"?
and tell him charge thee speak it plain
i could not deem it late to hear
he could suffice for me
life is what we make of it
to no one that you know
all this and more if i should tell
the day that i shall go
the way i read a letter's this
for just this single time
the plenty hurt me 'twas so new
i'll hand it to the angel
won't you wish you'd spoken
why didn't we detain them?
Not Make It Feel,
nor will i, the little heart's ease
what little of him we possessed
and did the sunshine face his way
and lets the morning go
we can but follow to the sun
i could not see to see,
but could not make it feel,
madonna dim, to whom all feet may come,
than that, be sweeter wise;
that you be not ashamed
and whom you told it to beside
gave even as to all
though life's reward be done
possibly but we would rather
not like the gnat had i
Why It
be limited by ignorance
but just for one to stipulate
but do one face us suddenly
that when i could not find it
i had not had but for yourself
and why it was so still
and would not let the seconds by
these adjust that ran to meet us
the other only hear
conviction might, of me
the summer grace, for notice strove
that they will cheat the sight
"that must have been the sun!"
I Smile Upon The Lover
lest anybody spy the blood
i smile upon the aims
just let go the breath
morning means just risk to the lover
The Furthest Off
in moment of prosperity
and let you from a dream
the quiet ages picked it up
and then i go the furthest off
all days, i did not earn the same
nor will i, the little heart's ease
and heaven not enough for me
the wisdom it be so
Modest, Let Us Walk Among It Only Can
modest, let us walk among it
a smile, to show you, when this deep
it's all i have to bring today
for me my soul to wear
needless to tell thee so
just long enough for hope to tease
why give if thou must take away
nor stop to cross ourselves
but tell him that it ceased to feel
too sure to dote upon!
it only can suffice!
and you got sleepy and begged to be ended
how many times it ache for me today confess
Without A Thing To Say?
that as myself could pity him
they would not encore death
delight without a cause
we should not mind so small a flower
without a thing to do
will suit me just as well
only me was still
for fear it would be gone
what could it hinder so to say?
if town it have beyond itself
neither could be heard
that would not let the will
and what itself, will say to me
You Could Be Sure You're Sure You're Sure
when they let go the ignominy smiling
we bought to ease their place
my need of thee be done
for it would split his heart, to know it
but what that place could be
be sure you're sure you know
say "when tomorrow comes this way
you could not spare you know,
i could die to know
i'm banished now you know it
we wonder it was not ourselves
it yet remains to see
you would not know it from the field
it should not tease you
That Makes Two Him And Come Next Hour
continual upon me
he sometimes holds upon the fence
though it be darkness there;
not yet, our eyes can see
and come next hour to look,
modest, let us walk among it
that makes two him and life!
When That One, To Know Just A Minute
"faith" bleats to understand!
therefore we do life's labor
that one, to be quite sure
when that you met it with before
some that never lay
to know just how he suffered would be dear
but no man heard him cry
great spirit give to me
stop just a minute let me think!
how pleased they were, at what you said
A Grant Of The Summer Nears
for pang of jealousy
of death's tremendous nearness
a grant of the divine
the sweeping up the heart,
and as the summer nears
returning to the west
the grace that i was chose
the grave was finished but the spade
was he afraid or tranquil
all else accused me and i smiled
let me think i'm sure
death we do not know
could take it
i'd do this way
I Know
his merit all my fear
might he but spy the lady's soul
because it was a child, you know
i know it, by the numb look
because your face
although i put away his life
and if he spoke what name was best
i never thought to see
if love be just beyond
and if i do when morning comes
that would not let the will
loose the flood you shall find it patent
Without The Will
that something it did do or dare
a picture if it care
that would not let the will
how short it takes to make a bride
till love that was and love too best to be
to lose if one can find again
but as they learn to see
but we couldn't learn!
without the knowing why!
As Yet My Heart Be Dry
i should have had the joy
i think that earth feels so
could she have guessed that it would be
what comfort was it wisdom was
as yet my heart be dry
not if the just suspect me
it makes no difference abroad
it always felt to me a wrong
because i know it's true
i've seen?
but swear, and i will let you by,
heaven is what i cannot reach!
would you be the fool to stay?
going to heaven!
"i'm sunrise" need the majesty?
I Remember Me;
power is only pain
not yet, our eyes can see
"they have not chosen me," he said,
that they remember me;
i hope the "children" there won't be "new fashioned" when i come
although i knew to take it
let me think i'm sure
then i remember not,
Precious To Me Up
when they let go the ignominy smiling
the lonesome for they know not what
and that is his business not ours
as if they just repressed
the distance would not haunt me so
when it begun or if there were
nor could i rise with you
precious to me she still shall be
and put a stone to keep it warm
hope it was that kept me warm
and made as he would eat me up
to hold my life for me
i'll hand it to the angel
what day be dark to me
All This And Mine Should Be,
as dying say it does
they wonder if it died on that
i wonder if it weighs like mine,
all this and more if i should tell
the need did not reduce
maybe that would awaken them!
that would not let the will
that yours and mine should be,
but if the lady come
no man he seemed to know;
but he was left alive because
how well i knew the light before
i put my pleasure all abroad
I Almost Think If It Only Needs That
i almost think if i could do like you,
i think i know enough of hate
i let it lie there till i hope it slept,
i do not see why i should e'er turn back,
i'm not afraid of them, though, if they're not
but if you so much as dare to speak,
if we who sight along it round the world,
but never anymore the dead,
but it's not so, the place is the asylum,
but which it only needs that we fulfill,
tomorrow's wind, if it be wild,
yet if he encountered one
he thinks young wilson a likely lad, though daft
he showed not the least surprise,
"no, but he hurt my heart the way he lay
Clear To Cheek,
he wouldn't let me put him on the lounge,
when he did what he did and burned his house down,
clear to the ground, he always kept his poise
and back and forth he sways from cheek to cheek,
not the same doe come back into her place,
of really never having meant to keep it,
next to nothing for weight,
rather than send their folks to such a place,
and taken with it all the hyla breed
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
it blow but that you saw the trees in motion,
Where They Sought Without The Air To
at having cultivated rock,
they look at the sea all day,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
that struck the earth,
and where they sought without the sword
and taken with it all the hyla breed
and cutting nothing not cut down already,
with anyone to death, comes so far short
all this to prove we cared, why is there then
to let him know we weren't the least imposed on,
what form my dreaming was about to take,
to get so we had no one left to live with,
some spirit to stand simply forth,
Saying, And Mother Came,
hearth with love,
saying, and she could have him, and before
father and mother married, and mother came,
portent in little, assorted death and blight
cherish in hand, lift down, and not let fall,
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
so low for long, they never right themselves,
He Meant To This,
god, what a woman! and it's come to this,
the doctor, when he comes, don't let him, sister!"
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
if he wa'n't kept strict watch of, and it ended
that was well! and he stamped a hoof,
My Own Eyes,
if we who sight along it round the world,
though we choose greatly, still to lack
with all i have to hold with hand and mind
but i went near to see with my own eyes,
my dears, my dears, you thought that�we all thought it,
and, if you asked me, even help pretend
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
wait till you see,"
are you dumb because you know me not,
which may be thought, but only so to speak,
Tell You That I Let My Right
i let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
and tell you that i saw does still abide,
my right might be love but theirs was need,
i like to think some boy's been swinging them,
Blood-root, And You Have Said It Is Silver
is silver now with clinging mist,
it is under the small, dim, summer star,
it is true the longest drought will end in rain,
and leave it there far from a useful fireplace
"there, you have said it all and you feel better,
you were forever finding some new play,
tomorrow they may form and go,
"home is the place where, when you have to go there,
blood-root, and violets so soon to be now,
so late-arising, to the broken moon
The Tree Away
and say no word to tell me who he was
he said twice over before he knew himself,
and followed where he furrowed field,
he burned his house down for the fire insurance
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
where bird and flower were one and the same,
now close the windows and hush all the fields,
and left defenseless to the heat and light,
when slowly and nobody comes with a light
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
not only sands and gravels
and so not carrying the tree away
I Let It Melted, And Warn Them Away
a ring on his hand
a luminary clock against the sky
and warn them away with a stick for a gun,
a little through the lips and throat,
that was well! and he stamped a hoof,
then he flung outward, feet first, with a swish,
with whom he crosses antennae,
he caught my axe expertly on the rise,
i have but to turn on my arm, and lo,
it melted, and i let it fall and break,
Not For Me To The Letter Came
yet every second spear
one so lonely was fain to list,
with one whose thought i had not hoped to reach,
they knew they had but to stay their stay
not for me to ask which, when what he took
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
and thing next most diffuse to cloud,
some spirit to stand simply forth,
they sent him back to her, the letter came
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
and her face changed from terrified to dull,
and nothing to look backward to with pride,
Reaching Up With A Way,
it was no dream of the gift of idle hours,
of my regret hung not on all the land,
because his violence took on the form
and let the other go on a way,
and for every kind there was a face,
and reaching up with a little knife,
had wound strings round and round it like a bundle,
He Wouldn't See,
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
he will not see me stopping here
but i'll not have the fellow back,"he said,
and see the way you lived, but i don't know!
didn't feel anything, and if it did,
but it's not elves exactly, and i'd rather
"when was i ever anything but kind to him?
With Shouts Afar To Pull The Ties Gave,
the ties gave,
mine with inner, weather,
once, when trying with chin against a well-curb,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
with shouts afar to pull the cable taught,
the mystic link to bind and hold
Sweeping Round It With A Sound Beside
my sash is lowered when night comes on;
some sympathy was wasted on the house,
and work was little in the house,
the well was dry beside the door,
and a cold chill shivered across the lake,
and sweeping round it with a flaming sword,
there was never a sound beside the wood but one,
but upsilon which is the greek for you,
but this we know, the obstacle that checked
for what they�d better wait till we have done,
i don't learn what their names are, let alone
i'll sit and see if that small sailing cloud
and sorry i could not travel both
Clear To Return, Earth's The Planets Seem
she had to ask, "what was it, dear?"
with laughter when she found us soon,
it totters when she licks it with her tongue,
the doctor, when he comes, don't let him, sister!"
clear to the ground, he always kept his poise
the memory that he chose the life;
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
the planets seem to interfere in their curves -
and melting further in the wind to mud,
For Him To Carry It Was The Case
it seemed god let thee flutter from his gentle clasp,
and ever it was intended so,
the beauties she so truly sees,
saying, and she could have him, and before
but that he knows in singing not to sing,
of really never having meant to keep it,
and that was the case to carry it in,
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
as the road winds would bring him to his door,
Yet, What Was That Was That Reckless
behind light words that tease and flout,
and living people, and things they understand,
admitted; and yet, what was that to him?
but no, not yet, a snort to bid them wait,
a brook to none but who remember long,
that was a thing we could not wait to learn,
and long to know if still i held them dear,
for the least sin, it wouldn't take us long
what should that reckless zephyr fling
how no one dead will seem to come,
let�s all but bring to life this old volcano,
next to nothing for weight,
to look again, and still your spade kept lifting,
to leap the dusty deadline, for my own
But He Meant To No One But He
to see if he was talking in his sleep,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
blood-root, and violets so soon to be now,
to make it root again and grow afresh,
it seemed too tiny to have room for feet,
it was too lonely for her there,
but he wouldn't advise a thing to blossom,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
he moves in darkness as it seems to me,
so long as he would leave enough unsaid,
a light he was to no one but himself
A Pebble Of Quartz? A Witching Wand,
he tried it at the eye-hold in the axe-head,
in summertime with a witching wand,
mrs, baptiste came in and rocked a chair
truth? a pebble of quartz? for once, then, something,
a narrow passage all the way around,
and question what of the night to be,
and one thing more that was not then to say,
but the pure fate to which you go
it wouldn't do to be too hard on brad
the way we piled it, and let�s be the talk
it is because like men we look too near,
or so the story goes, it was some girl,
from a twig's having lashed across it open,
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
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,
So Close The Indwelling Spider Ran To See
then took it from me and i let him take it,
to put a tree between us when he lighted,
there we bowed us in the burning,
something more of the depths and then i lost it,
so close the windows and not hear the wind,
but whenever the roof camme white
to see if the birds lived the first night through,
the indwelling spider ran to greet the fly,
Around Him To Loose The Best Way Is
the best way is to come up hill with me
to loose the resin and take it down
around him to look after that make waste,
oh, let�s not wait for rain to make it safe,
The Trees Must, Let Them Silently Toss;
if the trees must, let them silently toss;
the water for which we may have to look
and bring it to market when you please
and listen - how it ought to go!
upon my way to sleep before it fell,
still it wouldn't reward the watcher to stay awake
he'd tear to pieces, even a bed to lie on,
but it were vain to tell her so,
if i was not to speak of it to you
and the sweet pang it cost me not to call
you make me angry, i'll come down to you,
i should prefer to have some boy bend them
but i may be one who does not care
and they seem not to break; though once they are bowed
their characters, or whether they are safe
Let Me Into Your Grief, I'm Not So
and the more loitering are turned
the leaves are all dead on the group,
the road would fail; and on that side the fire
across the reeds to a window light,
before them over their heads to dry in the sun,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
he's come to help you ditch the meadow,
man came to tell it what was wrong,
though doubtful whether he stayed to see,
he said he couldn't make the boy believe
something to sell? that wasn't how it sounded,
i wasn�t going to tell you and i mustn�t,
let me into your grief, i'm not so much
for i have had too much
i've been away once yes, i've been away,
Scared A Silver Blade,
and in conjunction giving quite a spread,
like the two strokes across a dollar sign,
like pearls, and now a silver blade,
pale orchises, and scared a bright green snake,
leap up, like that, like that, and land so lightly
one on a side, it comes to little more,
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
and that has made all the difference,
but the secret sits in the middle and knows,
of burning fatness, and then nothing but
he wanted to go over that, but most of all
what brought the kindred spider to that height,
that water never did to land before,
But The World's Evil, I Won't Have
but the world's evil, i won't have grief so
but dared not spare to do the best we could
to seek the brook if still it ran;
that ought to be worth something, and may yet,
of really never having meant to keep it,
let�s all but bring to life this old volcano,
so old and firm they scarcely show the breeze,
I Trusted The Demon Arose From His Wallow
in hopes of seeing the calm of heaven break
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
the demon arose from his wallow to laugh,
mixed ready to begin the morning right,
let�s all but bring to life this old volcano,
i like to think some boy's been swinging them,
to find himself in one, well, all we said was
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite,
you take the lake, i look and look at it,
i trusted the brook barrier, but feared
i thought a few might tangle, as they did,
will run as hushed as when they were a thought
I Let Him Take It,
"don't, don't, don't,
then took it from me and i let him take it,
the bridegroom thought it little to give
and so at last to learn to use their wings,
on the sidehill, we haven't to mind those,
Like A Second Trial,
like a malice prepense,
a dole of bread, a purse,
doing a man's work, though a child at heart
how was it with him for a second trial,
all for me and not a question
they looked about for someone to have done it,
and all for nothing it had ever done
what had that flower to do with being white,
"i want him to, he'll have to soon or late,"
to let him know we weren't the least imposed on,
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,
Which May Be Thought, But Only So To
before god's last put out the light was spoken,
and still she had all they had they the lucky!
to let him know we weren't the least imposed on,
one on a side, it comes to little more,
a quiet light, and then not even that,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
which may be thought, but only so to speak,
of daring should be still to dare,
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,
I See,
i craved strong sweets, but those
i wonder about the trees,
i don't learn what their names are, let alone
but just the kind that kinsfolk can't abide,
and not another like it could i see,
but i understand, it is not the stones,
didn't feel anything, and if it did,
be glad of water, but don't forget
or give some sign of life? because you can't,
for the least sin, it wouldn't take us long
To Let Him Know We Look Too Near,
call it a day, i wish they might have said
it is because like men we look too near,
let�s not care what we do with it to-night,
we don't cut off from coming to church suppers,
but this we know, the obstacle that checked
to let him know we weren't the least imposed on,
And, Tired Of Scene
give the buried flower a dream;
and care for them in such a change of scene
a sort of catch-all full of attic clutter,
the picture pride of hollywood,
the fen had every kind of bloom,
afraid of me, there's two can play at that,
not yet the little dotted in me seek,
cherish in hand, lift down, and not let fall,
and, tired of aimless circling in one place,
even as on earth, in paradise;
and knock to the echoes as beggars for roses,
That Those Dark Trees,
that life has for us on the wrack
to let him know we weren't the least imposed on,
of course he's nothing to us, any more
and question what of the night to be,
her tone of meaning but without the words,
one of my wishes is that those dark trees,
when the sun is out and the wind is still,
that struck the earth,
and the strange birds say,
and all but lost,
Scared The River;
its two banks have not shut upon the river;
and show on the water its crystal teeth,
and on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow,
like a limp rose-wreath in a fairy dance,
and in conjunction giving quite a spread,
and a hush falls for all acclaim,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
the roadside flowers, too wet for the bee,
autumn, yes, winter was in the wind;
in clomping off; and scared the outer night,
at broken windows flew out and in,
in summertime with a witching wand,
and a gem-flower waved in a wand!
Elude My Darker Mood,
leaves are all my darker mood,
elude my embrace,
it seemed god let thee flutter from his gentle clasp,
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
That Would Be Good Both Going And Coming
shook whatever it was lay there at bottom,
it will be long ere the marshes resume,
that would be good both going and coming back,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
a cloud comes over the sunlit arch,
a great wave from it going over them,
a miserable sight, and frightening, too
We Made It's Not Medicine
and miles to go before i sleep,
i think they would believe the lie,
we made it secure against being, i hope,
oh, let�s not wait for rain to make it safe,
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
and draws it down as if it were a lover
that that was the place to carry a heart
they had given him back to her, but not to keep,
admitted; and yet, what was that to him?
he wanted to go over that, but most of all
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
Ever It Was The Earth,
in summertime with a witching wand,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
almost like a call to come in
that that was the place to carry a heart
nor was the grass itself your real concern,
something there is that doesn't love a wall,
and ever it was intended so,
which may be thought, but only so to speak,
there were enough things to be thought of then,
he may be better than appearances,
he had been heard to say by several,
they sent him back to her, the letter came
it hadn't found the place to blow;
Telegraph,
they bring the telephone and telegraph,
the mower in the dew had loved them thus,
and where they sought without the sword
and making the best of their way back to life
with thoughts of a path back, how rough it was
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
a sleepy sound, but mocking half,
I Saw It,"
i let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
and i had idly poised my pen in air
i would not come in,
i left you in the morning,
myself unseen, i see in white defined
i wonder about the trees,
i had the swirl and ache
i have been one acquainted with the night,
outside there in the entry, for i saw it,"
Around Him To Look After That If Splitting
but if you so much as dare to speak,
and ought to do some good if splitting stars
but whate'er you do tonight,
it got so i would say you know, half fooling
i'll see to that if there is need, he ought of right
to you in your condition; you can't know
"you can't because you don't know how to speak,
let them think twice before they use their powers
around him to look after that make waste,
with loathing, for again it turned to fly,
no more to build on there, and they, since they
with anyone to death, comes so far short
to find himself in one, well, all we said was
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
Across The Other Go On Black Ground A
like a white piece of rigid satin cloth
and on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow,
'twas a nest full of young birds on the ground
the disappearing last of him
across the sill from the outer gloom,
and tripped the body, shot the spirit on
and let the other go on a way,
on his particular time and personal sight,
some good perhaps to someone in the world,
he resolves to become intelligible, at least to himself, since there
they tried to keep him clothed, but he paraded
thus till he had them almost feeling dared
in time, had she not realized her danger
with what was another man's work for gain,
That Ought To Carry Again To Their Separation,
with smell of burning on every plume,
than the merest aimless breath of air,
wide fields of asphodel fore'er,
as the breeze rises, and turn many-colored
like pearls, and now a silver blade,
for a friendly visit,
and a white shimmering concourse rolls
man acts more like the poor bear in a cage,
were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
that ought to be worth something, and may yet,
that now it means to stay,
and nothing to look forward to with hope,
to carry again to you,
but yield who will to their separation,
let�s not care what we do with it to-night,
He Had In Mind To Say To Lose
on a white heal-all, holding up a moth
my long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree
somehow the change wore out like a prescription,
he says they two will make a team for work,
he had in mind to say to a bad neighbour
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges
only to lose it when he pirouettes,
he wouldn't let me put him on the lounge,
The Dead
"how often already you've had to be told,
how else? they are not known to send the dead
the letter you will find me subscript to
and half grant what i wish and snatch me away
i doubted if i should ever come back,
whose woods these are i think i know,
But Something Has To Her Pleasure Will Not
nor yet did i,
what was it it whispered? i knew not well myself;
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
her pleasure will not let me stay,
living, they gave him back to her alive
but something has to be left to god,
whose office it is to bury
it hadn't found the place to blow;
But It Is I Know So Well
my right might be love but theirs was need,
and thus it is i know so well
but it might be, come night, i shouldn't like it,
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
they would not find me changed from him they knew
how else? they are not known to send the dead
something you somehow haven't to deserve,"
always wrong to the light, so never seeing
they had given him back to her, but not to keep,
and that was my long scythe whispering to the ground,
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
the farmhouse lingers, though averse to square
a plow, they say, to plow the snow,
He Made His Errand Sure,
he saw no smoke and he saw no roof,
he gave it scarcely a touch,
that was well! and he stamped a hoof,
before he made his errand sure,
it seemed god let thee flutter from his gentle clasp,
that day, giving a loose my soul,
a miserable sight, and frightening, too
with thoughts of a path back, how rough it was
To The Right Place For Love,
as long as it takes to pass
as it grows wiser and older,
as i came to the edge of the woods,
and making the best of their way back to life
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
to the low roof over his bed,
to the land vaguely realizing westward,
to see, if in a dream they brought of you,
not yet the little dotted in me seek,
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
that ought to be worth something, and may yet,
blood-root, and violets so soon to be now,
it will be long ere the marshes resume,
That Jangled Even Above The Skies,
the clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
and in the morning glow,
the moon, the little silver cloud, and she,
though chill, because the fields were ours,
but finding nothing, sullenly withdrew,
cherish in hand, lift down, and not let fall,
that we sit sometimes in the wayside nook,
and then i said the truth and we moved on,
so, but the hand was gone already,
not caring so very much what she supposes,
anything more than the truth would have seemed too weak
had worn them really about the same,
that jangled even above the general noise,
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
Through,
and makes gaps even two can pass abreast,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
it will have roared first and mixed sparks with stars,
to look again, and still your spade kept lifting,
and seek with laughter what to brave;
for you to doubt the likelihood,
they did not have the wit to say,
If The Air
my instep arch not only keeps the ache,
it only gives our wish for blue a whet,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
the birds that came to it through the air
to which you give the assenting voice,'
to see if the birds lived the first night through,
if we who sight along it round the world,
and that was why it whispered and did not speak,
grief may have thought it was grief,
no, not as there is a time to talk,
something there is that doesn't love a wall,
it is the autumnal mood with a difference,
it was a cord of maple, cut and split
But I May Recall It,
while i fry their bacon, much they care!
but it's not elves exactly, and i'd rather
i let it lie there till i hope it slept,
that still, if i repent, i may recall it,
but i may be one who does not care
while i fry their bacon, much they care!
you have only to ask me, and i can tell,
did ever you feel so? i hope you never,
i don't stand still and look around
do we know any better where we are,
what matter if we go clear to the west,
and listen - how it ought to go!
the place it reached to blackened instantly,
but no, not yet, a snort to bid them wait,
Don't Carry It To Life This Time,
i asked him well beforehand, `don't you get one!'
with one whose thought i had not hoped to reach,
if we who sight along it round the world,
don't carry it to someone else this time,
i should prefer to have some boy bend them
that brought me to my feet to hold it back
you wanted to restore them to their right
let�s all but bring to life this old volcano,
But Did Not Enough, A Good Helve
i remember that i did,
i wonder about the trees,
the plum, i suppose,
i expect, though, everyone's heard of it,
bearing it crushed and mystified,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
in the unloading, silas does that well,
but did not enter, though the wish was strong,
it was too lonely for her there,
and he likes having thought of it so well
he showed me that the lines of a good helve
so was i once myself a swinger of birches,
