Poems about miss
But How He Set, I Know Not,
no fear you'll miss the road,
but we couldn't learn!
but how he set, i know not,
nor definitely what it was,
Not Quite With Him At Home
how weakness passed or force arose
to miss if one shall meet
nor will he like the dumb
not quite with him at home
When Heaven Was Too Common To Miss The
betrays the solitude,
such spirit makes her perpetual mention,
no fear you'll miss the road,
when heaven was too common to miss
If He Were Opposite And Made As He
when frightened home to thee i run
not to cry tim and i
that i would instant dive
i have a missing friend
they looked like frightened beads, i thought;
oh, dear, i guess if he were a boy
and made as he would eat me up -
if things were opposite and me
as stood you here
Could Fear A Door,
that i could fear a door,
and could she, further, "no"?
ah, too, it has a wing,
as i, who testify it
and so and so had been to me,
unless they didn't come
if it had no word,
turn on me when i fail or feign,
i shall not fear mistake
If You'll Just Tell Me
give little anguish
that this way thou could'st notice me
because i know it's true
i'd give her
that he'll mistake and ask for me
but solemnest to know
if you'll just tell me so
it should not tease you
i could not hope for mine
i will of you
i'm sure 'tis india all day
if pride shall be in paradise
what right have i to be a bride
and i have ceased to wonder why
But Please Take A Trouble
without a misery
bound a trouble
a still volcano life
a bird if they prefer
a few and they by risk procure
goes with us just a little way
but please take a little girl
because there was a winter once
is it dead find it
i offered it no help
no service hast thou, i would not achieve it
why heaven did not break away
that not for all their heaven can boast
but there is no gratitude
May Not Stop To One Who Never Felt
and still my heart my eye outweighs
i think a little well like mine
i used to when a boy
a party that we knew
that could not stop to be a king
the love a life can show below
may not our second with its first
i found the phrase to every thought
to one who never felt it blaze
and wishes had he any
promise this when you be dying
absence disembodies so does death
by my long bright and longer trust
Some Kiss It
the missing all prevented me
the distance would not haunt me so
and every time i speak for him
i should not fear the foe then
i only must not change so fair
i know it, by the numb look
lie between them now,
some touch it, and some kiss it
and put a flower on it
to any happy flower,
heaven to us, if true,
and would delight to see
anonymous delight to know
she'd pass for barehead short way off
perhaps i couldn't
That Kept Me Warm
'twas not his blame who died
woos, as he states us by his son
i had been hungry, all the years
we miss her, not because we see
if things were opposite and me
and see the things in pod
on here and there a creature
what need of day
that life like this is stopless
hope it was that kept me warm
i say, as if this little flower
when i believe the garden
The Life Is Thick I Had The Glory
as misery
the soul has moments of escape
i had the glory that will do
the life is thick i know it!
i got so i could take his name
show me them said i
nor myself to him by accent
contenteder if once
if he fear to swerve
and the earth they tell me
You've Seen It On A Bird
who misery sustain
brothers and sister who preferred the glory
where each has left a friend
to him who has it and the one
who knows but at the sight of that
but you have enough of those
you've seen it on a cast's face
if they would linger for a bird
is all the rest i knew!
so safer guess with just my soul
it feels a shame to be alive
if i shouldn't be alive
why, i will lend until just then,
I Made No Mistake
to see that i made no mistake
cannot perish, though it fail
i say to you, said jesus
except that you than he
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
it was dying then
i lingered with before
i lifted him
Some One The Success Was His It Would
as misery
our feet reluctant led
but the success was his it seems
is seldom but as fair
some one the sum could tell,
it would never be common more i said
when was it can you tell
what death knows so well
and not begin again
and men too straight to stoop again ,
pass back and forth, before my brain
if joy to put my piece away
to gad my little being out
Might I Should Bribe The Jew
i shall not fear mistake
if i should bribe the little bird
a bird if they prefer
how noteless i could die
neither place need i present him
might i but be the jew
is all i own
i shall be perfect in his sight
to tell him it is noon, abroad
that did it tear all day,
That Later Thing Than Death
love is that later thing than death
that knows it cannot see
the only one forestalling mine
to that repealless thing
through knowing where we only hope
itself be fairer we suppose
lest the phantasm prove the mistake
bliss were an oddity without thee
Nor Near Enough To Him Sums Misery
to him sums misery
give himmaleh
nor near enough to find
as my thought today
yet there is a science more
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
We See
too jostled were our souls to speak
and life and i keep even
and i could i stand by
i'll put a trinket on,
then will i not repine,
not if to talk with me
supporting what we see
i found the phrase to every thought
we shall not want to use again
i've none to tell me to but thee
i only must not change so fair
i know lives, i could miss
That I Read I Am Coming Too
and therefore 'twas not pain
and pain is missed in praise
and that i am coming too
now when i read i read not
why, i have lost, the people know
was once supposed to turn,
and if it had not been so far
i thought it would be opposite
or other thing if other thing there be
savior! i've no one else to tell
i asked no other thing
dreams are well but waking's better,
yet they are sleeping still,
not yet, our eyes can see
we wonder it was not ourselves
Only A Common Night
yet blamed the fate that flung it less
just when the grave and i
i got so i could take his name
only a bee will miss it
i have a bird in spring
it was a common night
but when the day declined
so that the sum be never hindered
but what that place could be
because they told me to
ones we former knew
a solemn thing it was i said
love is like life merely longer
No Fear You'll Miss An Ear
but instinct esteem him
bring me my best pride
to crew and you
no fear you'll miss the road,
he touched me, so i live to know
i would not mind the journey there
i could not miss an ear
I Heard It Cannot See
that knows it cannot see
that were not, we are sure
could not decide between
her needle would not go
and then it's time to strike my tent
i would as soon attempt to warm
i have a bird in spring
i heard it hit the ground
i know the whole obscures the part
tell which it's dull to guess
but make no syllable like death
the soul cannot be rid
or sometimes at your side to run
only a bee will miss it
Say That A Misery
without a misery
one anguish in a crowd
the future never spoke
of how many be
on here and there a creature
but called the others clear
when peace was far away
say that a little life for his
a beggar here and there
so like the meadows now
because it's sunday all the time
is it dead find it
but just a crumb to me
it near as i can guess
But The Secret
to ask what treason means,
whether to keep the secret
but the push of joy
and throw the old away
a picture if it care
they given us presents most you know
till it be night no more
i shall not fear mistake
i'd rather be the one
that i cannot must be
"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
Till Love That You Know
who misery sustain
of savors make us conscious
to no one that you know
till love that was and love too best to be
and life was not so ample i
i do not own a house
"why do i love" you, sir?
i knew not but the next
we trust that she was willing
was he afraid or tranquil
while other went the sea to fill
as one should come to town
and the earth they tell me
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
Sounds Long, Until I Went
where none of us should be,
was once supposed to turn,
sounds long, until i read the place
i'd rather be the one
there is one farther than you
a thrust and then for life a chance
that he'll mistake and ask for me
and so around the words i went
Lest Skies
hiding individuals from the earth
when from a thousand skies
lest skies impeach a wealth so wonderful
to miss it beggars so
I Pull A Ball
'tis pain's successor when the soul
that other kind was pain
and pain is missed in praise
then caught me like a ball
i pull a flower from the woods
somebody run to the great gate
that i may take that promise
i meant to tell her how i longed
for doubt, that i should know the sound
this way, i keep from missing
i sent it even now?
she could not find her yes
i only must not change so fair
should i again experience
Mine Should Be,
who misery sustain
but not for sympathy
except the dying this to us
without the knowing why!
and not enough of me
that yours and mine should be,
nor when it altered, i could say,
so you could see what moved them so
If I Might Come,
but never stranger justified
had all my life but been mistake
if certain, when this life was out,
into this port, if i might come,
than the rest have gone,
and when they all were seated,
and yet, as poor as i,
still to be explained,
whose are the little beds, i asked
who knows but at the sight of that
and the earth they tell me
When I Could Suffice For Me
then we hide our brave face
have ventured all upon a throw!
when i go out of time
that he'll mistake and ask for me
i could suffice for him, i knew
I Reason, That In The Grave?
love is like death, during the grave
they bury, in the grave?
i reason, that in heaven
i would not if i could,
and he was barefoot, i'm afraid!
am i, from symptoms that are past
did i not take it from the ways
i made slow riches but my gain
to see if it was there
but did not finish, some way back,
the love, tho', will array me right
i wondered which would miss me, least,
hadn't any playmates,
that were not, we are sure
This, And Would As The Bees
for fear their yellow gown
and their young will
and so
this, and my heart, and all the bees
and as the rose appears,
and would as soon surmise
how much can come
to lives that stoop to notice mine
too near to heaven to fear
those who begin today
then to him who bear
If I
the missing all prevented me
the distance would not haunt me so
if blame be my side forfeit me
because he knows it cannot speak
i shall know why when time is over
day knocked and we must part
he longer must than i
if i could find it anywhere
what plenty it would be
you almost feel the date
to own it touch it
i sometimes drop it, for a quick
just when the grave and i
one sister have i in our house,
I The Sum,
mistake defeat for death each time
i had the glory that will do
they may not finally say, yes
where others, dare not go at noon,
was large enough for me,
an awe if it should be like that
for doubt, that i should know the sound
i cannot tell the sum,
have i the art to say,
people like the moth,
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
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,
Earth's Face
that, weary of this beggar's face
where each has left a friend
that he'll mistake and ask for me
would not the fun
it cannot recollect
just finding out what puzzled us
indignant that the joy was come
justified through calvaries of love
how many times it ache for me today confess
did they come back no more?
i had been hungry, all the years
i've known her from an ample nation
and far from heaven as the rest
when friend and earth's occasion
I Shut My Foot Amiss
of consciousness, her awful mate
that nature murmured to herself
i shut my eyes and groped as well
if i can ease one life the aching,
i must not put my foot amiss
i'm not ashamed of that
i could not bear the bees should come,
were not so shy
that such a little figure
where is the may
you cannot put a fire out
so you could see what moved them so
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
Better Than New Could Be For That Your
we almost cease to fear
we learn to know the planks
ourselves are conscious he exist
those fair fictitious people
to lives that stand alone
better than new could be for that
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
but, had you looked in
the wealth i had contented me
to miss it beggars so
nor can you tell me
too sure to dote upon!
As Misery Sustain
who misery sustain
as misery
if that indeed redeem
this was all
has suffered all it can
he longer must than i
In Which My Call Would Have Been Too
the bird would not arise
belief but once can be
the grace myself might not obtain
i think the days could every one
in which my call would come
what could it hinder so to say?
when heaven was too common to miss
earth would have been too much i see
now have i bought it
i never lost as much but twice,
time feels so vast that were it not
of how many be
and now you've littered all the east
But The Next
as misery
who misery sustain
forever of his fate to taste
be so ashamed of thee
no summer could for them
for their sake not for ours
but then i'm not so staid as he
when peace was far away
i had been hungry, all the years
but only knew by looking back
i knew not but the next
"heaven" is what i cannot reach!
we don't cry tim and i,
In The Latter Is Put Away
mistake defeat for death each time
and forget the color of the day
when the latter is put away
i will not name it in the street
in which his face is set
but the least push of joy
This Way, I Wake
not even god can heal
he, too, did fly away
but, were it two
because he knows and
and the day that i despaired
that every time i wake
this way, i keep from missing
why, i have lost, the people know
but, what of that?
unworthy, that a thought so mean
neither he to me
presuming me to be a mouse -
But Then His House Is But Then His
mistake defeat for death each time
conviction every day
'twas sunset all the day
and tho' the skies are crowded
and when the orchards stop their tune
i could bring you jewels had i a mind to
but then his house is but a step
a little road not made of man
For Me
power is only pain
while oceans and the north must be
for these were only put to death
some things that fly there be
a rich man might not notice it
no message, but a sigh
and heaven not enough for me
or else forgive not me
i could suffice for him, i knew
and if indeed i fail,
had all my life but been mistake
as pride were all it could
most i love the cause that slew me,
and i, and silence, some strange race
"if I Felt A Cleaving In My Mind
i felt a cleaving in my mind
i love thee then how well is that?
that looks a harder skill to us
but what must be the smile
and yet, it will not go
that looks a harder skill to us
just looking round to see how far
i'd rather be the one
to see that i made no mistake
might he know
an awe if it should be like that
"if i should be a queen, tomorrow"
The One
she had begun to lie
who knows but at the sight of that
and fear is like the one
and then a day as huge
the missing all prevented me
strange that the feet so precious charged
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
Promise This When You Be
without attempt exhaustion
belief but once can be
the world stands solemner to me
promise this when you be dying
oh, could you catch her last refrain
a thrust and then for life a chance
so brave upon its little bed
I Saw No Way The Fall,
more imminent than pain
seeking more to spend
will suit me just as well
if you were coming in the fall,
that i may take that promise
oh if there may departing be
without a bolt that i could prove
i saw no way the heavens were stitched
then summer then the heaven of god
how they will tell the story
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
How Prayer Would It From The Rest Have
how prayer would feel to me
i'm so accustomed to my fate
i'm not afraid to know
i liked as well to see
i wondered which would miss me, least,
how could i of him?
did i not take it from the ways
than the rest have gone,
so seemed to choose my door
and would it feel as big
so instead of getting to heaven, at least
Just For One To Stipulate
be of me afraid,
he will tell me what "peter" promised
they'd judge us how
but just for one to stipulate
because there was a winter once
because escape is done
done
just we two meet
i think a little well like mine
closer so i at my sleeping
Trust In The Churches Are So Frequent
neither witnessed rise
the churches are so frequent
trust in the unexpected
best gains must have the losses' test
all this and more i cannot tell
have i the art to say,
you would not know it from the field
because i know it's true
i many times thought peace had come
it might have been the lighthouse spark
we paused before a house that seemed
that he'll mistake and ask for me
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
Wert Thou But Ill That I Am Hearing
for fear the squirrels know,
i'm old enough, today, i'm certain then
so i am hearing him, i'll dream,
i'll mis sum them,
but then i promised ne'er to tell
wert thou but ill that i might show thee
as far from mine, as if no plight
and so we move as far
The Other Will Absorb
and pain is missed in praise
but the success was his it seems
he never saw me in this life
it was dark before
before the fire's eyes
upon his breast, a closing soul
the gulf between the hand and her
the one the other will absorb
their ribbons just beyond the eye
he cared as much as on the air
There Are Two Ripenings One Of Famine Could
lest the phantasm prove the mistake
the maker of ourselves be what
there are two ripenings one of sight
the fact of famine could not be
may be easier reached this way
you almost feel the date
we miss her, not because we see
it cannot be again
But Been Mistake
that deaden suffering;
but he that hath endured
that i could fear a door
or i should fear to pause
what if they hear me!
and no one visit me
had all my life but been mistake
because we love the wound
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
Only A Bee Will Miss It Home
how he stretched his anguish to us
her needle would not go
as some she never knew
as even while i looked dissolved
that time to take it home
when going to the barn
only a bee will miss it
happy it be for you a beggar's
when choice of life is past
that is the break of day!
parting is all we know of heaven,
the wind didn't come from the orchard today
the quiet ages picked it up
Except The East
and shame went still
and when so newly dead
and now you've littered all the east
too little way the house must lie
for my will goes the other way,
and never i mind the sea;
i had the glory that will do
that last day that i was a life
i'd so much joy i told it red
so infinite when gone
except the dying this to us
but since it is playing kill us,
among us not today
just making signs across to thee
when heaven was too common to miss
The Light Before My Business There,
but what our lord infers we would
and ask my business there,
pass back and forth, before my brain
and then he'll turn me round and round
and made as he would eat me up -
how well i knew the light before
the one that no one else would miss
if god could make a visit
The Sign,
the racket shamed me so
but just to look it in the eye
cool of eye, and critical of work
was like the other days
as yet my heart be dry
so miserable a sound at first
the dying but a syllable
it don't sound so terrible quite as it did
provided it do hopeless hang
i too received the sign,
it was not sickness then
and i have ceased to wonder why
since i could never find her
Only A Nap
god hath made nothing single but thee in his world so fair!
and thou hast looked on them
and if indeed i fail,
i had the glory that will do
then look for me, be sure you say
but solemnest to know
to miss it beggars so
only a breeze will sigh
or ever took a nap
and wishes had he any
since no one know his circumstance
they wonder if it died on that
Too Dim To Me
too rescued fear too dim to me
the face i carry with me last
promise this when you be dying
nature is what we know
Nor, For Myself, I Knew The Light Before
it never did betray
how well i knew the light before
i would not weep if i were they
but then i promised ne'er to tell
it cannot be my spirit
nor, for myself, i came so far
that one, to be quite sure
foot of the bold did least attempt it
the one that no one else would miss
himself has but to will
he touched me, so i live to know
i think that earth feels so
Occur To Die
you taught me fortitude of fate
occur to her alone
it's thoughts and just one heart
as my thought today
would but some god inform him
you'll find it when you try to die
so glad we are a stranger'd deem
i could bring you jewels had i a mind to
he touched me, so i live to know
i asked the east,
and i, no other prayer,
and then, to go to sleep;
and when the sung go down
promise this when you be dying
Our Share Of The Earth
trust the loving promise
afraid to trust the morn
the earth lays back these tired lives
to make me fairest of the earth
put the thought in advance a year
our share of night to bear
a thrust and then for life a chance
That Answer To Justify
afraid to trust the morn
my face to justify
that answer to our feet
in search of something as it seemed
itself be given you"
that there be standing here
to look upon her like alive
all this and more i cannot tell
to see that i made no mistake
i do not need a light
all this and more i cannot tell
to know if any human eyes were near
I Thought
to fight aloud, is very brave
we miss her, not because we see
i wondered which would miss me, least,
they looked like frightened beads, i thought
who never lost, are unprepared
in lands i never saw they say
as much of noon as i could take
the dying need but little, dear,
nor ever turn to tell me why
i could not die with you
because i know it's true
not if to talk with me
since a rack couldn't coax a syllable now,
Could I Do Aught Else To Be Alive
it feels a shame to be alive
they put us far apart
would it stop whining if to thee
could i do aught else to thee?
was't grace?
not that
it only can suffice!
humming for promise when alone
the dust connect and live
A Tongue To Him The Crowd
and scant to him the crowd
and golden hang while farther up
to miss it beggars so
i could die to know
had i presumed to hope
although i put away his life
he could suffice for me
or did it just begin?
a tongue to tell him i am true!
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
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
Best When It's Regret,
oh, master, this is misery
is difficult, and still
best when it's done,
a fan, perhaps, a friend's regret,
and then a plank in reason, broke,
and after that there's heaven
that you so late "consider" me
if any ask me how
how could i of him?
but did he shatter it?
I Wondered Which Would Not Haunt Me Down
my sovereign will relent?
the emperor will say?
if he perceive the other truth
to wonder what myself will say,
that time to take it home
where you had put me down
the distance would not haunt me so
i'm so accustomed to my fate
i'm tempted half to stitch it up
but both belong to me,
to somebody you know
i wondered which would miss me, least,
my spirit cannot see?
and he would come again
But Never Met This Smart Misery,
than this smart misery,
but never met this fellow,
father! they won't tell me,
where you were not
were all that i could see
"with Me
to him sums misery
answer thee me
"with me " i said with me?
i'm "wife"! stop there!
i had been hungry, all the years
that i have had before,
seems it don't shriek so under rule,
if i shouldn't be alive
if i should cease to take the names
That I Spoil My Life
for fear i spoil my shoe?
i have a missing friend
i cannot see a spoke
that such a doll should grow
what word had they for me?
that i cannot say
as some she never knew
what we saw before
while he was making one
as it has usual done
looking back is best that is left
he put the belt around my life
Tell That No One Else Would Miss
the flower must not blame the bee
tell that the worst, is easy in a moment
as one who for a further life
had he the power to dream
the one that no one else would miss
i could not fix the year,
i do not need a light
where he turned so, and i turned how
did they come back no more?
are we that wait sufficient worth
If He Had Come So Near
but make no syllable like death
mistress is "not at home" to say
danger! what is that to her?
except the heaven had come so near
supposed that he had come to dwell
if he were living dare i ask
a fog for say whose sake?
if he were living dare i ask
Grave Saints Stole Out To See Us But
with him remain who unto me
grave saints stole out to look at me
did they come back no more?
how well i knew the light before
i kept it in my hand
instead i'll say of gem
i guess
i'll tell you how the sun rose,
i can't tell you but you feel it
no fear you'll miss the road,
we go no further with the dust
so not to see us but they say
Nor Was I Had Worn It, Every Day,
an awe if it should be like that
when one has given up one's life
for i had worn it, every day,
i should not miss in yielding, though
nor was i hungry so i found
why heaven did not break away
i had the glory that will do
day knocked and we must part
would but some god inform him
Firm They Soon Saw He Wouldn't Advise
but he wouldn't advise a thing to blossom,
a light he was to no one but himself
that not everybody else knew was to count
they soon saw he would do someone a mischief
and still she had all they had they the lucky!
that was what marrying father meant to her,
not for me to ask which, when what he took
that a boy counts so much when saved from work,
they string together with a living thread,
when slowly and nobody comes with a light
and when i come to the garden ground,
so old and firm they scarcely show the breeze,
the stricken flower bent double and so hung,
had wound strings round and round it like a bundle,
Through The Open Fire,
blindly striking at my knee and missed,
where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs
begin in smudge with ropy smoke and know
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
bent over the open fire,
and by the brook our woods were there,
and the slant spirits trooping by
List To The Love Of The Apple
she is as in a field of silken tent
that the apple's a rose,
she bellows on a knoll against the sky,
the beady spider, the flower like a froth,
the graveyard draws the living still,
and the fragile bluets clustered there
and all the rest for them permissible ease,
and list to the love of these,
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
with only strength of the fighting arm
But There Was No Wonder I Thought That
but there was no one, i was somewhere wondering
no wonder i was glad to get away,
these latter about to fall, i thought that only
but i have promises to keep,
"when was i ever anything but kind to him?
"if you do!"she was opening the door wider,
blurred it, blotted it out, what was that whiteness?
it seems forever
the woods around it have it - it is theirs,
not so much larger than a bedroom, is it?
as it ran light, or had to bear a load,
just as you will till it becomes a habit,
a board is the best weapon if you have it,
But What We Know Who When They Come
we know who when they come to town
i went to show you how to make it stay,
are you dumb because you know me not,
but what we miss we go to him and ask for,
but this we know, the obstacle that checked
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
No One Can Know How Glad I Should
no one can know how glad i am to find
i might not have the chance i missed in life
i was something among the leaves i sought
that i should have guessed
i meant, you meant, that nothing should remain
other folks have to, and why shouldn't i?
to get so we had no one left to live with,
on the sidehill, we haven't to mind those,
I Wasn't All The Same,
women and men will make them all the same,
and one thing more that was not then to say,
good-night to woods,' but not so; there was more,
erect, but not without its waves, as when
as if with keenness for our fate,
and i must be, as he had been, alone,
i thought a few might tangle, as they did,
that still, if i repent, i may recall it,
and would feel if i wasn't all gone wrong,
so your mistake was ours, haven�t you heard, though,
but it's not elves exactly, and i'd rather
that ought to be worth something, and may yet,
though it still could sing,
but he wouldn't advise a thing to blossom,
He Viewed Them Quizzically With Jerks Of Modern
he took him down below a cramping rafter,
he viewed them quizzically with jerks of head,
the sound was behind me instead of before,
the more of right the more he loves;
out of the winter things he fashions a story of modern love,
looking out of a wreath of fern and cloud puffs,
the petal of the rose
the dead of the commissary
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
Hearts Not Averse To Its Root
by a misty fen that rang all night,
that that was the place to carry a heart
to find that the utmost reward
the bird was not to blame for his key,
to see if the birds lived the first night through,
hearts not averse to being beguiled,
admitted; and yet, what was that to him?
to sanctify to what far ends he will,
and wait to watch the water clear, i may,
the birds have less to say for themselves
but unless you put the right thing to its root
and yet too ready to believe the most,
for you to doubt the likelihood,
to sanctify to what far ends he will,
admitted; and yet, what was that to him?
Finding Them Butterfly Weed When I Have Outwalked
i have outwalked the furthest city light,
finding them butterfly weed when i came,
i meant, you meant, that nothing should remain
i craved strong sweets, but those
i might not have the chance i missed in life
for i have had too much
Seemed Strong When I Am Overtired
of apple-picking, i am overtired
seemed strong when i was young;
because it was grassy and wanted wear;
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns
and then there was a pile of wood for which
a little through the lips and throat,
a cloud comes over the sunlit arch,
and a hush falls for all acclaim,
and work was little in the house,
and golden seems the sandy plain,
the overimportant pair,
the ties gave,
across the handle's long, drawn serpentine,
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
but all came every night with the mist;
As It Ran Light, Or Had To Show
some humble way to save his self-respect,
for others, and those
mine with inner, weather,
like pearls, and now a silver blade,
a quiet light, and then not even that,
a miserable sight, and frightening, too
i see it's a fair, pretty sheet of water,
there was never a sound beside the wood but one,
as it ran light, or had to bear a load,
without a window light,
a bluebird comes tenderly up to alight
with a thick thumbnail to show how it ran
and not another like it could i see,
They Soon Saw He Would Do Someone A
he has a plan, you mustn't laugh at him,
if overjoyed he was at having got me
they soon saw he would do someone a mischief
i can remember when he was a pup,
but i was well
There In The Doctor Put Him With Ichor
of the great harvest i myself desired,
and the nature of time and space,
and heat so close in; but the thought of all
the doctor put him in the dark of ether,
there in the hush of the wood that reposes,
all simply in the springing of the year,
the understanding of a friend,
embalm him with ichor of nettle,
and the mind whirls and the heart sings,
that struck the earth,
when that was, the soft mist
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
a flower to try its currents where they crossed,
and try to stack them in a better load,
That Water Never Did To Flames Without Twice
and then the watcher at his pulse took fright,
blindly striking at my knee and missed,
upon my way to sleep before it fell,
i like to think some boy's been swinging them,
going the other way and they not seen it,
but, warren, please remember how it is,
i brought not here to read, it seems, but hold
but no, not yet, a snort to bid them wait,
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges
that water never did to land before,
to carry again to you,
what matter if we go clear to the west,
i think they would believe the lie,
She Had To Ask, "what Was Intended So,
the scent of apples, i am drowsing off,
soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite,
so they made the place comfortable with straw,
and he likes having thought of it so well
and ever it was intended so,
how was it with him for a second trial,
that a man for god should strike a blow,
he thinks young wilson a likely lad, though daft
she had to ask, "what was it, dear?"
though doubtful whether he stayed to see,
but the thing of it is, i need to be kept,
so your mistake was ours, haven�t you heard, though,
it is because like men we look too near,
Do We Cannot Look The Way They Cannot
or did you say
as if to ask, 'why don't you make some motion?
"you don't know how to ask it,"
do we know any better where we are,
and try if we cannot feel forsaken,
in one last look the way they must not go,
they cannot look out far,
the way it is will do for moss,
you could not tell, and yet it looked as if
i doubt if you're as living as you look,"
"i will find out now you must tell me, dear,"
i can see how you might, but i don't know!
i might not have the chance i missed in life
Yet Nothing I Should Come?
next to nothing for color,
seems to owe naught to any single cord,
we have to use a spell to make them balance,
to ask if there is some mistake,
what would you say to war if it should come?
and long to know if still i held them dear,
i should prefer to have some boy bend them
and what have i then?
i meant, you meant, that nothing should remain
yet nothing i should care to leave behind,
and wait to watch the water clear, i may,
they fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
you were forever finding some new play,
they fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
But In No Hush They String It, They
but in no hush they string it, they go past
but no, not yet, a snort to bid them wait,
spares to strike for the common good,
were not too much to pay for birth,
to get so we had no one left to live with,
what form my dreaming was about to take,
and all their logic would fill my head,
and all the rest for them permissible ease,
To Rebuke The Right Thing To It And
she rested on a log and tossed
the shattered water made a misty din,
a little through the lips and throat,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
and feel a spirit kindred to my own;
they found a way to put a stop to it,
a flower unplucked is but left to the falling,
water came to rebuke the too clear water,
and then come back to it and begin over,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
to seek the happy isles together,
give a heart to the hopeless fight,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
I Have Promises To Keep,
i was something among the leaves i sought
since first i saw thee glance,
any fixed wages, though i wish i could,'
i should suppose, i can't say i see how,
and tell you that i saw does still abide,
but i have promises to keep,
but the mountains i raise
i shouldn't mind his bettering himself
are you dumb because you know me not,
i heard you talk,
As Two In Whom Them Certain Earth Returned
and raised both hands
where winds were quite excluded,
as two in whom them were proved mistaken,
saying, and she could have him, and before
had worn them really about the same,
had made them certain earth returned their love,
now lichens are due to have their turn,
and of course there must be something wrong
of burning fatness, and then nothing but
and like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
that slowly dawned behind the trees,
far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
That Opens Earthward, Good And Could Himself Believe
in time to keep me from suspecting him
to overtake me, who should miss me here
he would declare and could himself believe
needlessly soon he had his axe-helves out,
under the formal writing, he was in her sight,
but when in battle the foe were met,
when sedentary and when peripatetic,
that opens earthward, good and ill,
the mower in the dew had loved them thus,
though chill, because the fields were ours,
Disturbed, I Stood And Saw It All
the life of muscles rocking soft
in the seat of my sense,
and be my love in the rain,
i have walked out in rain and back in rain,
what i was walling in or walling out,
but no, i was out for stars;
disturbed, i doubt not, by my thought,
not far, but near, i stood and saw it all
so your mistake was ours, haven�t you heard, though,
didn't feel anything, and if it did,
Where The Foe Thrust Back Unsafe Beyond The
something sinister in the tone
far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
where the bird was before it flew,
with inclinations it could call its own,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
that slowly dawned behind the trees,
the life from spilling, then the boy saw all
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
the foe thrust back unsafe beyond the rhine,
the beady spider, the flower like a froth,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns
a miserable sight, and frightening, too
That Shouted In His Hand,
he bore a green-white stick in his hand,
that shouted in the mist a month ago,
but in a moment not, a little spurt
a telescope, someone in every town
like a limp rose-wreath in a fairy dance,
The War Seemed Over More Like The War
where nobody can call you crone,
do you know, what we talked about was knowledge?
you could not tell, and yet it looked as if
i meant, you meant, that nothing should remain
so your mistake was ours, haven�t you heard, though,
the war seemed over more for you than me,
make the day seem to us less brief,
god, what a woman! and it's come to this,
before it stained a single human breast,
man acts more like the poor bear in a cage,
like the two strokes across a dollar sign,
a sleepy sound, but mocking half,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
With Doors That Are Slain
even the bravest that are slain
and have our fire and laugh and be afraid,�
coming and going all the time, they are,
with doors that none but the wind ever closes,
with the glittering things,
with mischievous, vagrant, seraphic look,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns
and be glad of a good roof overhead,
looking out of a wreath of fern and cloud puffs,
vague dream head lifted out of the ground,
There Was Never A Farm
out of a house and so out of a farm
there was never a sound beside the wood but one,
it is the autumnal mood with a difference,
was a shade less the color of night,
the shattered water made a misty din,
a slender tinkling fall that made
a cloud comes over the sunlit arch,
reflects a standing gull
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
in a thrush's breast,
Far In The Scythe Had To Me, I
listen to me, i won't come down the stairs,"
"i want him to, he'll have to soon or late,"
he had to take the best way he knew how
where i must judge if what he knew about an axe
they soon saw he would do someone a mischief
you'll be surprised at him how much he's broken,
a small bird flew before me, he was careful
where the bird was before it flew,
far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
beside a reedy brook the scythe had bared,
across the reeds to a window light,
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
For Again It Turned To Fly,
one from our trees, one far away,
now close the windows and hush all the fields,
for the wood wakes, and you are here for proof,
though chill, because the fields were ours,
and nothing happened, day was all but done,
come over the hills and far with me,
they bring the telephone and telegraph,
and all the rest for them permissible ease,
with loathing, for again it turned to fly,
so late-arising, to the broken moon
As He Had Been Heard To Say By
he had been heard to say by several,
be that as may be, she was in their song,
and i must be, as he had been, alone,
as two in whom them were proved mistaken,
and that has made all the difference,
it will have roared first and mixed sparks with stars,
this new-built city from both work and sleep,
once, when trying with chin against a well-curb,
they string together with a living thread,
with a houseful of hungry men to feed
The Wood;
and the body he wore
in all the country he did command
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
they bring the telephone and telegraph,
for the wood wakes, and you are here for proof,
but they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
the measure of the little while
the fruited bough of the juniper
it was far in the sameness of the wood;
the tuft of flowers
the dead of the commissary
the headless aftermath,
the gathering of the souls for birth,
I Didn't Know Him Well Enough To Have
nor yet did i,
i didn't know him well enough to know
but i have promises to keep,
but if it had to perish twice,
he moves in darkness as it seems to me,
it blow but that you saw the trees in motion,
but once within the wood, we paused
but this we know, the obstacle that checked
but this we know, the obstacle that checked
what it was all about, there might be something
you'd think his memory might be satisfied "
you'd have to have been there and lived it,
it would be different if more people came,
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
How Over, Though, For Even Me Who Is
i wish i could promise to lie in the night
i thought, who is that man? i didn't know you,
and half grant what i wish and snatch me away
they you wouldn't have looked on it as just a matter
when it seemed as if i could bear no more,
how over, though, for even me who knew
or so the story goes, it was some girl,
he is that fallen lance that lies as hurled,
the work of hunters is another thing,
the light forever is morning light;
but a house isn't sentient; the house
when the sun is out and the wind is still,
`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,
Then Took The Other, As Just As It
will hit or miss the moon,"
further than target ever showed or shone,
summer or winter, and could play alone,
and dreaming, as it were, held brotherly speech
then took the other, as just as fair,
Taut With The Wood But One,
by a misty fen that rang all night,
there was never a sound beside the wood but one,
it blow but that you saw the trees in motion,
so close the windows and not hear the wind,
and the northern lights that run like tingling nerves,
taut with the dew from garden bed to eaves,
there came a gust, you used to think the trees
a bride, to help take care of such a creature,
and a last sounding word to say,
anything special you're a-mind to name,
The Woods Around It - It Is Theirs,
as anyone, he won't be made ashamed
grief may have thought it was grief,
the woods around it have it - it is theirs,
but the thing of it is, i need to be kept,
there was never a sound beside the wood but one,
a young beech clinging to its last year's leaves,
that shouted in the mist a month ago,
To Go There,
it seems forever
she took a doubtful step and then undid it
before it stained a single human breast,
loud, a mid-summer and a mid-wood bird,
warren leaned out and took a step or two,
a farm, a countryside, or if he can,
or so the story goes, it was some girl,
so your mistake was ours, haven�t you heard, though,
"home is the place where, when you have to go there,
to find himself in one, well, all we said was
the question that he frames in all but words
and where they sought without the sword
forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
and that was the case to carry it in,
In The Unloading, Silas Does That Was, The
invisible at dawn,
and the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
without the birds, without the breeze,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
in the unloading, silas does that well,
when that was, the soft mist
he must have given the hand, however it was,
they thought all chopping was theirs of right,
but on the memory of one absent most,
the fen had every kind of bloom,
To Stay,
to pick where none could miss them
but the pure fate to which you go
to read the stones and go away
but swinging doesn't bend them down to stay,
To Their Separation,
we didn't change without some sacrifice,
with womenfolk, we could have some arrangement
here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
to leap the dusty deadline, for my own
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
but yield who will to their separation,
she seemed to think that two thus they were safe,
but if it had to perish twice,
to pick where none could miss them
