Poems about pass
I Have Passed From Thee
i fear me this circumference
then midnight, i have passed from thee
with every morn that came
but please take a little girl
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
Even In The Air
still the eternal rule
was like the stillness in the air
we passed the setting sun,
and even in the urn,
To Show The Way
through the strait pass of suffering
to show the sun the way
came out to look at me,
but, looking back the first so seems
That It Return
afraid to trust the morn
if he fear to swerve
his fingers, if he pass,
he touched me, so i live to know
how well i knew the light before
but searching i could see
as much of noon as i could take
that person that i was
without design that i could trace
i have heard but one
i only know no curricle that rumble there
there'll be that dark parade
may be easier reached this way
too plummetless that it return
When It Could He Flinch The Eye That
lest if he flinch the eye that way
when it is lost, that day shall be
forever might be short, i thought to show
for it would stop my breath
as if it held but the might of a child
if it had no word,
as far as it could see
could he know they sought him
he seek conviction, that be this
salute, and pass, without a hint
Forever Might Be Short, I Thought To Us
the witnessing, to us
our souls saw just as well
that they have done expecting me
forever might be short, i thought to show
that was all i cared to know,
i dreaded that first robin so,
i, lost, was passing by
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
Seen Magic Through The Ignorance Steals
upon the ignorance steals
seen magic through the fright
he flung a hand full at the plain
oh, when the squirrel fills his pockets
that if the spirit like to hide
that darkness is about to pass,
and that by right that he
since no one know his circumstance
if the life be too surrendered
nor myself to him by accent
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
The One Aware Of Death
will be the one aware of death
the first day that i was a life
a passing universe put on,
his speech was like the push
the dying as it were a height
as even while i looked dissolved
then eddies like a rose away
how midnight felt, at first to me
by it my title take
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,
If Just As Breath Is Narrow Loving
for arrogance of them
too wide for any night but heaven
as if for lull of sport
that was in the green
when earth cannot be had
till death is narrow loving
she'd pass for barehead short way off
if just as soon as breath is out
if love be just beyond
how long a day i could endure
A Lord, Might Dare To My Life, My
that if the flesh resist the heft
though it be darkness there;
and almost to suffice
no bone had he to bind him,
a lord, might dare to lift the hat
tie the strings to my life, my lord,
bring me the sunset in a cup,
but, had you looked in
and she had past, with him
and then, as if the hands
nor once look up for noon?
one need not be a house;
i shouldn't like to come
i would as soon attempt to warm
One Need Not Be True
no man can compass a despair
it always felt to me a wrong
better than music! for i who heard it
that this was all
without a bolt that i could prove
but you have enough of those
a gratitude that such be true
but the fir is where declare
one need not be a house
in which we first experienced light
Held My Ears, And Now, I'm Different
they doubt to witness it
we waited while she passed
her steady boat be seen
and held my ears, and like a thief
and now, i'm different from before,
bereft i was of what i knew not
will suit me just as well
Some Things That Darkness Is About To Him
that darkness is about to pass,
you must forget the warmth he gave,
it troubled me as once i was
some things that stay there be
before he comes we weigh the time!
and made as he would eat me up -
to him who has it and the one
But Just Held Two, Nor Those It Was
afraid to trust the morn
to answer wherefore when he pass
it was announced to me
it just held two, nor those it held
as it has usual done
but just to look it in the eye
on the heads that started with us
but, looking back the first so seems
i keep it, staying at home
midnight good night! i hear them call,
though thine attention stop not on me
Is Where The Leaves Conferred
ourselves are conscious he exist
is where the angels are
its past set down before the soul
and yet existence some way back
it gains the block and now it gains the door
to my quick ear the leaves conferred
it burns distinct from all the row
Was Dying As He Thought Or Force Arose
how weakness passed or force arose
the living tell
the morning happy thing
it's liker so it seems
was dying as he thought or different
the grace that i was chose
because i see new englandly
and if it had not been so far
i should have been too saved i see
i think that earth feels so
How Well I Hear Her Say
the news would strike me dead
for fear i hear her say
of only taste we cared to please
had not a further use
for i was once a child
how well i knew the light before
i told him best must pass
to know just how he suffered would be dear
be sure you're sure you know
But 'twas The Grace That I Was Chose
at what o'clock to heaven they fled
the grace that i was chose
but 'twas the fact that he was dead
'twas crisis all the length had passed
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
I Was Not Care About It Would Be
who knows but this surrendered face
might some one else so learned be,
could she have guessed that it would be
i had no cause to be awake
and any one i knew
i do not care about it
i could climb if i tried, i know
and gambol i may never name
and when i was not heeding,
then midnight, i have passed from thee
the day must follow too,
i, passing, thought another noon
When Choice Of Life Is That Later Thing
it's such a little thing to weep
love is that later thing than death
like other new things shows largest then
the lightning playeth all the while
when choice of life is past
with many a turn and thorn
without the other therefore
But He Must Count The Experiment Of Our
faith the experiment of our lord
for the soul's comprising
to leave me in the atom's tomb
to lose it in the sea
to lose one's faith surpass
but he must count the drops himself
yet held my breath, the while
the quiet ages picked it up
Carries One Out Of It To Meet
but not for sympathy
as fair as our idea
these adjust that ran to meet us
and carries one out of it to god
and she had past, with him
my business, just a life i left,
and then you and i, were silenter,
and bear to all my friends,
adam, and eve, his consort, the moon, and then the sun;
before they drop full music on;
for doubt, that i should know the sound
If They Prefer
upon the ignorance steals
nor even of defeat aware
nor confirm by word
if what we could were what we would
are so high up you see
a bird if they prefer
and back it slid and i alone
and so and so had been to me,
and that a further and the three
a passage back or two to make
i was used to the birds before
If Those I Have Had Before,
it would hurt us were we awake
the angels happening that way
that you so late "consider" me
they cannot put away
to what, could we presume
that i have had before,
he did not know i saw;
if those i loved were lost
this heart that broke so long
she'd pass for barehead short way off
i meant to find her when i came
To Put Away
to justify despair,
did leap, full flanked, upon the host
one need not be a chamber to be haunted,
a passage back or two to make
final fast above
make the blind leap
is left to put away
to stop and tell them where it is
Some Such An One As Just Apprenticed To
the little bird would not dissent
this was a poet it is that
it is the ultimate of talk
it was not for me
for it would split his heart, to know it
did you ever look in a cannon's face
or something in the sight
or wind's bright signal to the ear
as just apprenticed to the air
for such an one as me
with other and 'twill yawn the more
some such spice express and pass
cross it, and overcome the bee
and i dropped down, and down
are mostly so to me,
Forever Of His Fate To God
forever of his fate to taste
morning means just risk to the lover
that felt so ample yesterday
i though that storm was brief
i should not fear the foe then
that if the flesh resist the heft
and carries one out of it to god
to me surpassed the crown
myself be noon to him
Will Urge It Return
a fear will urge it where
will there really be a "morning"?
maybe, we shouldn't mind them
oh, could you catch her last refrain
and told him what i'd like, today,
best, to know and tell,
and no one made reply,
pass back and forth, before my brain
and later, in august it may be
too plummetless that it return
he seek conviction, that be this
It Deem It Deem It Deem It Deem
what all the world suspect?
when choice of life is past
it deem it be continually
nay said the may
neither could be heard
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
Is It Would Be Gone
for fear it would be gone
they're here, though; not a creature failed
if one care to, that is,
what day be dark to me
and if the further heaven
and no man is the one
when choice of life is past
is it dead find it
as small they say as i
till we are helped
if we were true
yet have no art to say
to hands i cannot see
if i should cease to bring a rose
in it wait till judgment break
Three Times He Must Have Passed From Thee
afraid! of whom am i afraid?
then midnight, i have passed from thee
that face will just be thine
all this and more if i should tell
if any are not sure
the need did not reduce
i had the glory that will do
and i have ceased to wonder why
needs but to remember
and then she ceased to bear it
three times he would not go
he must have achieved in person
to those who failing new
between my country and the others
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
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
Precious To Find
but there is no gratitude
i do not care about it
how long a day i could endure
and what a wave must be,
and subsequent, to find
and now, removed from air
i never lost as much but twice,
and she had past, with him
precious to me she still shall be
chase it not, and it abides
good night, because we must,
and wondered what they did there
that never wrote to me
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!
Just See If It Be Even
insert the thing that caused it
a passage back or two to make
to wait an hour is long
a doubt if it be fair indeed
just see if i troubled them
because escape is done
i too if he
too plummetless that it return
that hunch themselves between
we could not grasp its segment
she could not find her yes
somehow, it will be even
Of Man
how weakness passed or force arose
the maker of ourselves be what
of meeting them afraid
fame of myself to lack although
there's somewhat prouder, over there
a little road not made of man
Embarrassment Of Life Is Past
embarrassment of one another
on here and there a creature
when choice of life is past
and finished knowing then
Pass Back And Then I Started Too,
but our anticipation
when that you met it with before
had it remained to speak
that often as a cloud it met
you will not wake them up,"
and come next hour to look,
and then i started too,
pass back and forth, before my brain
their coming mentioned be,
but we, who know,
while the old couple, just astir,
or think of, with a sigh
Is A Book I Have A Book I
seen magic through the fright
tall like the stag would that?
a book i have a friend gave
but then his house is but a step
is a too established fortune
some one the sum could tell,
a star not far enough to seek
its little fate to stipulate
its past enlightened to perceive
that if the spirit like to hide
A Sigh
how weakness passed or force arose
perhaps the other peace
these never stir at all
too far the strength
but, were it two
why, i have lost, the people know
a smile, to show you, when this deep
or think of, with a sigh
you, or the wind?
To Live So Small As I Fail Or
turn on me when i fail or feign,
to live so small as i
gave even as to all
the hills have a way then
should reach the heart that wanted me
that knows it cannot see
when choice of life is past
but you were crowned in june
it would hurt us were we awake
only me was still
he would trust no stranger
i do not care about it
New
when once it has begun
a bird by chance that goes that way
so say if queen it be
of which i have never heard?
nor will he like the dumb
it's all i have to bring today
no one he seemed to know
fame of myself to lack although
as if they just repressed
when he was mean and new
and then the list is done
when choice of life is past
they given us presents most you know
I Kept It Seemed The Children Find The
could the children find the way there
as if no soul the solstice passed
the eyes glaze once and that is death
that took its cambric way
it seemed the common way,
a time when it was not
i kept it in my hand
and if it had not been so far
when everything that ticked has stopped
But Since
death leaves us homesick, who behind,
uncertain if myself, or he,
nor had i time to love, but since
but if he ask where you are hid
when i have lost, you'll know by this
i only must not change so fair
and then it doesn't stay
when it goes, 't is like the distance
ungained, it may be, by a life's low venture,
how better, than a gem!
a pope, or something of that kind!
she's happy, with a new content
for that last onset, when the king
we passed the setting sun,
Then, As For That Would Have Joined The
in airy dalliance,
and her in the angle of house and barn
the clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
that would have joined the house in flame
had worn them really about the same,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
though as for that the passing there
as if she played unheard the tenderness
Shouldering Its Way And They No Memory Of
admits no memory of choice,
and they no doubt report
expressed them, and its curves were no false curves
and the awe passes wonder then,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
and brush the mow with the summer load,
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
the fresh chips,
making the gravel leap and leap in air,
it was far in the sameness of the wood;
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
and melting further in the wind to mud,
water came to rebuke the too clear water,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
not to believe the phoebes wept,
Followed Where He Thought That Child's
he liked to have it slender as a whipstock,
and then he'd crow as if he thought that child's play
it totters when she licks it with her tongue,
to put a tree between us when he lighted,
since he was old enough to know, big boy
good arguments he sees he might have used,
and followed where he furrowed field,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
But Now For Me Than You The Other
with thoughts of a path back, how rough it was
before it froze, and a gust flings a handful
or so the story goes, it was some girl,
but now for me than you the other way,
and taken with it all the hyla breed
something more of the depths and then i lost it,
i have my fancies, it runs in the family,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
and that was why it whispered and did not speak,
though doubtful whether he stayed to see,
he has a plan, you mustn't laugh at him,
For The Root,
next to nothing for use,
used these unscrupulously to bring me
to seek the brook if still it ran;
and bring it to market when you please
spares to strike for the common good,
were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
if that was your idea, against the breeze,
and having perhaps the better claim,
behind light words that tease and flout,
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
for you to doubt the likelihood,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
It Is Snowing A Boy Counts So Much
what held it though on one side was a tree
it is snowing a flake; and he half knew
then he flung outward, feet first, with a swish,
the moon, the little silver cloud, and she,
then he too passed unscared along the wall,
when he did what he did and burned his house down,
before we were her people, she was ours
he would declare and could himself believe
how was it with him for a second trial,
that a boy counts so much when saved from work,
No, I Will Go On Farther And I,'
stranger, you and i,'
no, i will go on farther and we shall see,"
i was glad though, no end, when we moved out,
before we met and you what i had passed,
before i built a wall i'd ask to know
i make a great noise
a man must partly give up being a man
all for me and not a question
Of Love Lies Not In Sheets The Root,
when heaven presents in sheets the solid hue?
too dark in the woods for a bird
he discovers that the greatness of love lies not in forward-looking
of ever coming to the place again
to white rest, and a place of rest
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
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,
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,
I Was Just As The Resin And I
then paused again and either drank or smelt
to loose the resin and take it down
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
so late-arising, to the broken moon
i was just as the light was beginning to fail
and i must be, as he had been, alone,
and he likes having thought of it so well
only to lose it when he pirouettes,
Slave To Break A Great Wave From It
but i may be one who does not care
i have to be gone for a season or so,
it never will show much flower or fruit,
going the other way and they not seen it,
and broken it, and used therefrom
though it still could sing,
a great wave from it going over them,
and once she went to break a bough
to leap the dusty deadline, for my own
of their worth for you to treasure,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
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 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
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,
Knock To Clear The Echoes As I
as i came to the edge of the woods,
and knock to the echoes as beggars for roses,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
and back and forth he sways from cheek to cheek,
and followed where he furrowed field,
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,
With The Lips And Throat,
a dole of bread, a purse,
the beast,
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
and a shout greets the daring one,
a little through the lips and throat,
with the glittering things,
these pools that, though in forests, still reflect
that struck the earth,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
the sun and moon get crossed, but they never touch,
I'm Going Out To You And Thing Next
i'm going out to clean the pasture spring;
i'd like to go by climbing a birch tree,
change like this to a deeper roar?
to tell them "supper,"at the word, the saw,
the universe seems cramped to you and me,
and thing next most diffuse to cloud,
So Low For Long, They Were Something That,
with which the modern world is being swept,
he is scornful of folk his scorn cannot reach,
but it's more likely he was crossed in love,
'what passed between us, she was only reigning,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
so low for long, they never right themselves,
that was a thing we could not wait to learn,
we have to use a spell to make them balance,
to know that for destruction ice
and would have turned to toss the grass to dry;
to teach him how to build a load of hay "
and making the best of their way back to life
to better its perch for the night,
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
For The Hard Work, He Wasn't Selling Tickets,
where his job, when he wasn't selling tickets,
that was well! and he stamped a hoof,
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
if from its being kept forever under,
no, from the time when one is sick to death,
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
he consigned to the moon, such as she was,
he marked her through the pane,
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
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,
To The Gully,
to watch his woods fill up with snow,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
to every thing on earth the compass round,
to ensure their not being wasted on me,
to seek the happy isles together,
and would have turned to toss the grass to dry;
someone to salt the half-wild steer,
to lean against and hear in the dark,
and started down the gully,
the graveyard draws the living still,
but the black spread like black death on the ground,
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
to seek the happy isles together,
the bridegroom thought it little to give
He Resolves To Become Intelligible, At Least To
we suffer them by the day
when they were halted by a tumbled wall
too dark in the woods for a bird
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
and a last sounding word to say,
he resolves to become intelligible, at least to himself, since there
Things They Understand,
summer was past and the day was past,
and ever it was intended so,
and thus it is i know so well
i felt as a fool to have been so caught,
but if you so much as dare to speak,
and draws it down as if it were a lover
it's a star-splitter if there ever was one,
if that was your idea, against the breeze,
and living people, and things they understand,
where bird and flower were one and the same,
what brought the kindred spider to that height,
The Gloaming With Mary;
i pass by that way in the gloaming with mary;
i have come by the highway home,
had it been the will of the wind, was left
the barren boughs without the leaves,
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,
Slave To A Flower Unplucked Is But Left
in here and there a bird, or butterfly,
a flower unplucked is but left to the falling,
who makes the solid tree trunks sound again,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
toward the throne to witness there
these forces are obliged to pay respect to?'
A Time To A Window Light, And Then
or keeps the end from being hard,
going the other way and they not seen it,
so close the windows and not hear the wind,
a quiet light, and then not even that,
or shadow, but a cavern hole,
across the reeds to a window light,
nevertheless, a message from the dawn,
a narrow passage all the way around,
it only gives our wish for blue a whet,
no, not as there is a time to talk,
it is the autumnal mood with a difference,
it has lasted me many and many a year,
a small bird flew before me, he was careful
a voice said, look me in the stars
the blue prunella every child's delight,
From The
the hills are verdured pasture-wise;
with rock and washout, and unsafe in darkness;
begin in smudge with ropy smoke and know
when pear and cherry bloom went down in showers
in any rough place where it caught,
to do with what was in the darkened parlour?
he is in doubt whether to admit real trouble to a place beside the
no, from the time when one is sick to death,
from one who had no right to be heard from,
I Had To The Armful In The Armful
i had to drop the armful in the road
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
up to the brim, and even above the brim,
and caught herself up bodily, chair and all,
A Pathless Wood
and followed it crying 'heart or death!'
'tis only to sit back and sway his head
his icicles along the wall to keep;
to white rest, and a place of rest
love and a question
and life is too much like a pathless wood
a narrow passage all the way around,
and thought of doing something to the shore
they thought all chopping was theirs of right,
He Calls On Stone,
they make us cringe for metal-point on stone,
on through the watching for that early birth
to drum on the floor with scurrying hoofs
and tripped the body, shot the spirit on
years afterwards, trailing their leaves on the ground
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
and the nature of time and space,
the spoils of the dead,
then the rain stopped and the blowing,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
he calls on change through the violence of the elements,
with the glittering things,
and the awe passes wonder then,
and the world had found new terms of worth,
more blameless in the sense of being less
The Beady Spider, The Wind Out Of
the first tool i step on
if i was not to speak of it to you
and often they brought so much to say
i shall have less to say,
what had how long it takes a birch to rot
what brought the kindred spider to that height?
to see, if in a dream they brought of you,
in one last look the way they must not go,
but not long since in the lumber camps,
where the boughs rain when it blows,
but the wind out of doors�you know the saying,
but the secret sits in the middle and knows,
the headless aftermath,
the beady spider, the flower like a froth,
and the awe passes wonder then,
Across The Flame Tip-down And Ask,
his hands? she had to look, and ask,
as he went out and in to fetch the cows
like stanchions in the barn, from floor to ceiling,
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
and wished her heart in a case of gold
he discovers that the greatness of love lies not in forward-looking
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
of something interposed between their sight
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
a narrow passage all the way around,
it put the flame tip-down and dabbed the grass
this saying good-bye on the edge of the dark
across the lines of straighter darker trees,
before the coming of the snow,
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;
He Moves In Darkness As It To
but if you so much as dare to speak,
that was a thing we could not wait to learn,
and all the time we talked you seemed to see
they must go down past things coming up,
your going and coming, and you like it here?
don't carry it to someone else this time,
and he could wait -we'd see to him tomorrow,
he moves in darkness as it seems to me,
to be coming home the way i was,
they knew they had but to stay their stay
that now it means to stay,
and the sweet pang it cost me not to call
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,
Dooryard And Having Scared The Watching For That
everywhere,
dooryard and road ungraded,
and holding by the stalk,
and having scared the cellar under him
he discovers that the greatness of love lies not in forward-looking
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
to every thing on earth the compass round,
on waking to find valor reign,
on through the watching for that early birth
the sound was behind me instead of before,
That Flower To Do With Straw,
`whether they work together or apart,'
"home is the place where, when you have to go there,
tomorrow they may form and go,
as if to prove saws knew what supper meant,
than for himself, so placed he couldn't hope
so they made the place comfortable with straw,
though as for that the passing there
the bird was not to blame for his key,
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
what had that flower to do with being white,
that now it means to stay,
but the thing of it is, i need to be kept,
but which it only needs that we fulfill,
they leave us so to the way we took,
len says one steady pull more ought to do it,
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,
The Blowing,
toward heaven still,
and the pile somewhat sunken, clematis
then the rain stopped and the blowing,
and tripped the body, shot the spirit on
seizes the dead by the middle,
and by the brook our woods were there,
and the awe passes wonder then,
the overimportant pair,
the clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
From Which To Square
even as on earth, in paradise;
than with brooks taken otherwhere in song,
dooryard and road ungraded,
with doors that none but the wind ever closes,
that struck the earth,
a narrow passage all the way around,
the farmhouse lingers, though averse to square
what but design of darkness to appall?
make up your mind to die in state,
a flower to try its currents where they crossed,
not to believe the phoebes wept,
from which to gather your gown,
to which you give the assenting voice,'
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,
But He's Not,
there overtook me and drew me in
but all he had to tell me in french-english
he must have given the hand, however it was,
he almost looks religious but he's not,
when he did what he did and burned his house down,
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
'what passed between us, she was only reigning,
for the least sin, it wouldn't take us long
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges
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,
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,
She Scorns A Pasture Withering To The Place
one flight out sideways would have undeceived him,
i must be wonted to it that's the reason,
if certain it wouldn't be idle to call
and ought to do some good if splitting stars
i didn't know him well enough to know
and say no word to tell me who he was
he said to gain time, "what is it you see?"
anything more than the truth would have seemed too weak
so they made the place comfortable with straw,
the hard snow held me, save where now and then
who makes the solid tree trunks sound again,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
and turns to the wind to unruffle a plume,
were native to the grain before the knife
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
He's Come To Help You Ditch The
to express how much it didn't want to die,
he's come to help you ditch the meadow,
to leap the dusty deadline, for my own
and making the best of their way back to life
to white rest, and a place of rest
to stretch a proffering hand and a spell-breaking,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
the heart he bore to the holy land,
he's come to help you ditch the meadow,
Will Rot The Best Birch Fence A Spell-breaking,
beside a reedy brook the scythe had bared,
to stretch a proffering hand and a spell-breaking,
will rot the best birch fence a man can build,'
the footpath down to the well is healed,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
with the same pains you use to fill a cup
to each the boulders that have fallen to each,
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,
They Go Past
it is time to make an end of speaking,
but before one is in it, their minds are turned
but in no hush they string it, they go past
they looked about for someone to have done it,
if you had any feelings, you that dug
they looked about for someone to have done it,
but now for me than you the other way,
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
with the flowers to play,
Shouldering Its Strength Lay
the deed of gift was many deeds of war
about our place among the infinities,
and the awe passes wonder then,
the overimportant pair,
and having perhaps the better claim,
these pools that, though in forests, still reflect
the victory for what it lost and gained,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
put on it from without, and there its strength lay
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
and the whimper of hawks beside the sun
the lurking frost in the earth beneath
who mowed it in the dew before the sun,
Now The Inside Of His House,
its light poured softly in her lap, she saw
to see for once the inside of his house,
were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
to find himself in one, well, all we said was
the way he mixed that in with other things,
one foot went down, the view was all in lines
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
the well was dry beside the door,
He Meant To Flames Without Twice Thinking, Where
he is all pine and i am apple orchard,
i knew pretty well what he had in mind,
in winter he comes back to us, i'm done,"
they had given him back to her, but not to keep,
while they had backs turned, that it hadn�t been there
he must have given the hand, however it was,
waiting for warren, when she heard his step,
before she saw him, she was starting down,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges
and when i come to the garden ground,
