Poems about medicine
It Knew The Meadows Now
truth is as old as god
so like the meadows now
the eager look on landscapes
how well i knew the light before
and when i looked again
although i put away his life
it knew no medicine
That Last Day That I Was A Pair
it knew no medicine
then there's a pair of us don't tell!
and they no more remember me
no other art would do
and tell you all your dreams were true
what else have bogs to do
to stop and tell them where it is
and men too straight to stoop again ,
i wished the grass would hurry
where i put it down
you'll know her by her foot
i meant to find her when i came
that last day that i was a life
though she forget the name i bear
So, But That He Knows In Singing Not
we don't cut off from coming to church suppers,
all this to prove we cared, why is there then
pointed our thoughts the way we pointed it,
and taken with it all the hyla breed
they bring the telephone and telegraph,
to have inside the house with doors unlocked,
to ease away they have it, with a laugh,
the sun and moon get crossed, but they never touch,
as you came up the hill, we met, but all
so, but the hand was gone already,
but that he knows in singing not to sing,
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
A Child At Heart
doing a man's work, though a child at heart
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
and ever it was intended so,
by measure, it was word and note,
nevertheless, a message from the dawn,
and in conjunction giving quite a spread,
in summertime with a witching wand,
a temple of the heat,
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
with only strength of the fighting arm
before the age of the fern;
the disappearing last of him
Rest, And Thought Of Course, They Can't
and eat the cones under his pines, i tell him,
and medicine and rest, and you a week,
only, of course, they can't sustain the part,
and thought of naught to say,
we were withholding from our land of living,
If Certain It Seems, But Hold
with night so near, but not much further up,
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
i brought not here to read, it seems, but hold
i should prefer to have some boy bend them
that�s what for reasons i should like to know�
to learn about not launching out too soon
something you somehow haven't to deserve,"
if certain it wouldn't be idle to call
"when was i ever anything but kind to him?
we didn't change without some sacrifice,
On Black Ground A Bear-skin Rug Of
and bruit our singing down,
was setting out, up track and down, not plants
and medicine and rest, and you a week,
like pearls, and now a silver blade,
in every print of a hoof a pond,
and on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow,
and a shout greets the daring one,
a sunny morning, or take the rising wind
With Loathing, For Love Of It, And Yet
and some are loaves and some so nearly balls
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
in the unloading, silas does that well,
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
but never anymore the dead,
with loathing, for again it turned to fly,
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
That A Box,
but nothing so like beating on a box,
and fit the earth like a leather glove,
love and a question
that a man for god should strike a blow,
isn't given a moment's arrest-
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
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
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,
Where The Cellar Walls,
and left no trace but the cellar walls,
some sympathy was wasted on the house,
summer was past and the day was past,
where the flower was before it grew,
the life from spilling, then the boy saw all
and taken with it all the hyla breed
rouse them all, both the free and not so free
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
but i understand, it is not the stones,
`what Do You Want With One Of Those
`what do you want with one of those blame things?'
and talk about your everyday concerns,
a house that lacks, seemingly, mistress and master,
and medicine and rest, and you a week,
and melting further in the wind to mud,
With Doctoring, But It Sounded,
and be one traveler, long i stood
and so the choice must be again,
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
something to sell? that wasn't how it sounded,
upon my way to sleep before it fell,
he kept from school, or did his best to keep
and would have turned to toss the grass to dry;
and to do that to birds was why she came,
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
that ought to be worth something, and may yet,
though we choose greatly, still to lack
to listen ere we dared to look,
