Poems about nest
Love Is That Fancied They Could Hold
i need no further argue 
that fancied they could hold 
but solemnest to know
love is that later thing than death 
It's Easy As A Second Future
when peace was far away 
but not the grief that nestled close
it's easy as a sign 
will in a second future 
It's Finer Own The Woods,
much madness is divinest sense -
it's finer own the ear 
it's like the woods,
what then?
 why nothing,
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 
As I Turned So, And
by faith may clear behold
nature will that it be night
because he knows and
might he know
when was it can you tell 
if is not bird it has no nest 
as small they say as i 
where he turned so, and i turned how 
and so the night became,
turn it, a little full in the face
But Stopped, When Qualified To Love, But Not
a fear will urge it where
it would be life 
it tried to be a rose 
a bomb to justify 
whether to reveal 
one port suffices for a brig like mine 
might death enable thee 
it feels a shame to be alive 
but not the grief that nestled close
perhaps he doesn't know the house 
but stopped, when qualified to guess
nor had i time to love, but since
tell him the page i didn't write 
I'd Not Pain
and therefore 'twas not pain 
since no one know his circumstance 
he did never say 
i'd not believe it if i heard
i have so much to do 
they called me to the window, for
the other, as a bird her nest,
it wandered from the same,
But Solemnest To Him, It Just Begin?
to him, it would be death 
but solemnest to know
but could not make it feel,
or did it just begin?
danger! what is that to her?
Chid My Fingers
and lest i cry 
i woke and chid my honest fingers,
i've diamonds on my fingers 
but when spades had done 
and came my way no more,
and put it in the drawer,
and now before the door
a day when it was not,
Other Went To The Grief That Nestled
but not the grief that nestled close
it's thoughts and just two heart 
and other went to turn the mill 
one hand the tools 
and closer to the fire 
had it a notice from the noon
another way to see 
so go your way and i'll go mine 
As Escapeless Quite
nature hesitate before
when lovers be afar 
nowhere to hide my dazzled face 
provided it do hopeless hang 
as yet my heart be dry 
and as escapeless quite 
as small they say as i 
he'd climb if he could!
if love be just beyond 
when was it can you tell 
till both can see 
but solemnest to know
to wonder what myself will say,
But Solemnest To Look Upon Her Like Alive
'twas better the perceiving not 
my soul accused me and i quailed 
it feels a shame to be alive 
but solemnest to know
to look upon her like alive 
myself be noon to him 
He And He And He And He
it ceased to hurt me, though so slow
lest that should conquer me,
if such it prove, it prove too
as that the slave is gone,
there's been a death, in the opposite house,
and he and he in mighty list
nor definitely what it was,
when it goes, 't is like the distance
the purple could not keep the east,
the orchard, when the sun is on 
but not the grief that nestled close
and grateful that a thing
so when 't was time to see,
as i, who testify it
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 
How It Would Split His Heart, To Know
without that forcing, in my breath 
when light is put away 
for it would split his heart, to know it 
how it is night in nest and kennel 
the grace that i was chose 
as i of he, so god of me
and when i looked again 
that as myself could pity him 
they never yet did satisfy 
i would not if i could,
Far Off The Face Of Trees,
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
beyond the shadow of a doubt;
so inconsolably   in the face of love,
the stricken flower bent double and so hung,
salmon and sturgeon, lashing with their tails,
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
the light of heaven falls whole and white
of things of moment to which, they wist,
before he came to the land of spain,
all simply in the springing of the year,
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
and the world had found new terms of worth,
bring the singer, bring the nester;
the work of hunters is another thing,
in the shape of a man,
But Though They Were Something That, Though They
to darken nature and be summer woods -
hill atmosphere not cease to glow,
and yet too ready to believe the most,
about our place among the infinities,
and the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
but though they rejoiced in the nest they kept,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
that probably it never would be lost,
To That Height,
no, from the time when one is sick to death,
what brought the kindred spider to that height,
to see, if in a dream they brought of you,
they have to take you in,"
but unless you put the right thing to its root
in one last look the way they must not go,
but though they rejoiced in the nest they kept,
The Day Was Scattered,
and cut a flower beside a ground bird's nest
a slender tinkling fall that made
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
the verses in it say and say,
but not long since in the lumber camps,
they might find fuel there, in withered brake, 
they fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
bearing it crushed and mystified,
where the flower was before it grew,
for though the grass was scattered,
summer was past and the day was past,
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,
To Watch The House That Laid The Right
she could be sure there was no hidden ill
they had no way of knowing a fool,
a heartfelt prayer for the poor of god,
and a shout greets the daring one,
and then there was a pile of wood for which
for nothing in the measure of a neighbour,
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
to every thing on earth the compass round,
and wait to watch the water clear, i may,
but once within the wood, we paused
But Though They Kept,
and then came racing wildly on again
but though they rejoiced in the nest they kept,
and yet too ready to believe the most,
but yield who will to their separation,
and to do that to birds was why she came,
A Daunting Look,
and turned on him with such a daunting look,
and a chain at his side,
leaving on one wire tooth a lock of hair,
the white clouds over them on,
yet for them the lilac renewed its leaf,
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
of heavenly stars with hugger-mugger farming,
with the curves of his axe-helves and his having
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
in a thrush's breast,
and cut a flower beside a ground bird's nest
Still,
of new wood and old where the woodpecker chops;
and the whimper of hawks beside the sun
enchant the land with amethyst,
and the shallow waters aflutter with wind
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
but the secret sits in the middle and knows,
and the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
that rested on the banister, and slid downstairs;
to read the gravestones on the hill;
make the settled snowbank steam;
and smooth and moist in vernal heat,
making the gravel leap and leap in air,
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
It Stained A Side, It Stained A Cord
a wind to blow in earnest from some quarter, 
to see if the birds lived the first night through,
the water for which we may have to look
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
not to believe the phoebes wept,
trying to sell his farm and then not selling,
to have you come and camp here on our land,
to find that the utmost reward
and to the forest edge you came one day
when a friend calls to me from the road
one on a side, it comes to little more,
before it stained a single human breast,
it was a cord of maple, cut and split
There Are Things That Can Never Be The
better to go down dignified
for the shocks and changes we need to keep us sane,
the sparks made no attempt to be the moon,
he wanted to go over that, but most of all
they thought all chopping was theirs of right,
coming and going all the time, they are,
there are things that can never be the same,
but though they rejoiced in the nest they kept,
so they made the place comfortable with straw,
with doors that none but the wind ever closes,
And, Tired Of Aimless Circling In Clomping Off;
all turn and look one way,
with none among them that ever sings,
the way he mixed that in with other things,
and, tired of aimless circling in one place,
in clomping off;   and scared the outer night,
the water comes ashore,
bring the singer, bring the nester;
that rested on the banister, and slid downstairs;
He Takes It So Well
storm fear
he takes it out in bunches like big birds' nests,
and he likes having thought of it so well
so now and never any different,"
and i agree to that, or in so far
what i was walling in or walling out,
i enter alone upon the stubble field,
of the great harvest i myself desired,
something more of the depths and then i lost it,
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 The Kindred Spider To Her,
and presently on the scene
as where some flower lay withering on the ground,
but though they rejoiced in the nest they kept,
the boy you had in haying four years since,
that the man with the meal-sack didn't catch then,
god, what a woman! and it's come to this,
here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
what brought the kindred spider to that height,
but that was in the woods, to hold my hand
yet saw but her within,
warren returned too soon, it seemed to her,
It Lost And Night Falling And Night Falling
snow falling and night falling fast, oh, fast
for still others they found,
and, for all burden, care,
the victory for what it lost and gained,
and set herself back where she, started from,
when sedentary and when peripatetic,
it ran with terror and with cunning crept,
and the awe passes wonder then,
and started down the gully,
besides the grave,
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
they turn their back on the land,
to the land vaguely realizing westward,
a flower to try its currents where they crossed,
to better its perch for the night,
Whose Only Play Was Gone Already,
even as on earth, in paradise;
and tripped the body, shot the spirit on
and the people look at the sea,
and the strange birds say,
with straining in the world's embrace,
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
so, but the hand was gone already,
and have stopped dying now forever,
and still she had all they had they the lucky!
whose only play was what he found himself,
a small bird flew before me, he was careful
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,
The Hand!
thought cleaves the interstellar gloom
the way the nest-full every time we stirred
so late-arising, to the broken moon
to lean against and hear in the dark,
when the wind works against us in the dark,
the barren boughs without the leaves,
enchant the land with amethyst,
the foe thrust back unsafe beyond the rhine,
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
Nothing To Leave It To, Whether The
and cut a flower beside a ground bird's nest
my breathing shakes the bluet like a breeze,
when leaning with my head again a flower
and my head sways to my shoulder
dimly to have made out my secret place,
to leave it to, whether the right to hold
to take him in, and might be willing to 
next to nothing for weight,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
to satisfy a lifelong curiosity
like a beast's stall, to ease their consciences,
and nothing to look backward to with pride,
ever to grind to soil for grass,
with shouts afar to pull the cable taught,
