Poems about road
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,
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
I Could See
and failed to wake them up
i could not prove the years had feet
i wonder if it hurts to live,
to tell him it is noon, abroad
what more the woman can,
there is a flower that bees prefer
as far as it could see
when there's no one here
i only know no curricle that rumble there
does not know they are
nor can you tell me
except that you than he
and every time i speak for him
that did it tear all day,
that when i could not find it
To Me
from him and holy ghost and all
to look upon her like alive
how prayer would feel to me
to tell him it is noon, abroad
but they that go,
therefore, as one returned, i feel
like one in danger; cautious,
Then It Would Split His Heart, To
they summoned us to die
to elude me so!
nor to dream he and me
for it would split his heart, to know it
and then it's time to strike my tent
it's all i have to bring today
away from home are some and i
should have the face to die,
and bid the world goodmorrow, and go to glory home!
and then abroad the world he go
they leave us with the infinite,
in dreams i see them rise,
yet not too far to come at call
To The Souls That Last Onset When Night
we who have the souls
the first day's night had come
for that last onset when the king
to the souls that snow
to tell the pretty secret
tell me how far the morning leaps
one came the road that i came
as far as it could see
include us as they go
or what the distant say
you'll know it by the row of stars
the parlor of the day!
but just to look it in the eye
that i cannot say
when night is almost done
Perhaps The Former
that puts the heart abroad
that popocatapel exists
if grief the largest part
the brain is just the weight of god
that were the mind dissolved
are one and yet the former
perhaps the other peace
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,
Nor Ever Turn To Tell Him It Is
nor ever turn to tell me why
how many be
if to be "elder" mean most pain
might i but be the jew
i sent it even now?
to tell him it is noon, abroad
her warm return, if so she chose
so short way off it seems
I Asked To Live,
love is like life merely longer
therefore we do life's labor
did they come back no more?
still to show how rich i go
i only have it not tonight
that when i could not find it
just when the grave and i
i did not know the year then
when i believe the garden
i've heard my father tell
i wonder if it hurts to live,
i would far prefer,
i asked to go abroad,
and gambol i may never name
What If The Face I Carry With Me
bereavement in their death to feel
as one who for a further life
that looks a harder skill to us
what if the bird from journey far
the face i carry with me last
through it compete with death
eternity is those
but morn didn't want me now
savior! i've no one else to tell
would cost me just a life!
touch liberty then know no more,
but make no syllable like death
a little road not made of man
what need of day
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
Or If It Makes No Difference Abroad
a needless life, it seemed to me
it would be life
it makes no difference abroad
the wind didn't come from the orchard today
though life's reward be done
some say it is "the spheres" at play!
and would it feel as big
i wonder how the rich may feel
or if it dare to climb your dizzy knee
then look for me, be sure you say
i should have been too glad, i see
but early, yet, for god
it has no future but itself,
Her Blossoms, Like A Curious Town
though it be darkness there;
if any sink, assure that this, now standing
they wonder if it died on that
it seems a curious town
a raised ethereal thing!
her blossoms, like a dream
and wandered in my face
that just abroad his window
drifts were as difficult then to think
that when i could not find it
Shape My Garden Go
or what the distant say
close to the two i lost
he never saw me in this life
love is like death, during the grave
to leave me in the atom's tomb
some in the busy tomb
in corners till a day
new feet within my garden go
and shape my hands
and then abroad the world he go
to this world she returned,
and carried, i supposed to heaven,
who win, and nations do not see
but they that go,
To Live
from accent harsh, or ruthless word
with many a turn and thorn
it may be a renown to live
to tell him it is noon, abroad
who knows but we'd reach the sun?
because the winds would find it out
insert the thing that caused it
it makes an even face
the fellow cannot touch this crown
not in this world to see his face
was once supposed to turn,
i've nothing else to bring, you know
and they can put it with my dolls,
and many hurt,
to push, and pierce, besides
It Seemed The Lonely Road,
and dwell a little everywhere
a stranger pressed a kingdom,
upon the lonely road,
light laughs the breeze in her castle of sunshine;
a wind with fingers goes,
since heaven and he are one,
oh the earth was made for lovers, for damsel, and hopeless swain,
what more the woman can,
death is but one and comes but once
it seemed the common way,
why, look out for the little brook in march,
all things do go a courting, in earth, or sea, or air,
myself and it, in majesty
and all day long, with dance and game,
without that forcing, in my breath
The Only One
and when a soul perceives itself
that bears a human soul!
death, the only one
and the sermon is never long,
and further in the day,
of all the sounds despatched abroad,
Although I Could Prove
truth is as old as god
without a bolt that i could prove
for it would split his heart, to know it
and if they have to try,
still just as easy, if it be thy will
one came the road that i came
when i was small, a woman died
just as the dawn was red
mine by the right of the white election!
a clearing at the end
he comes just so far toward the town
although i knew to take it
how foreign that can be
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
In The Fair Schoolroom Of The Suspense
the twilight stood as strangers do
just as the dusk was brown
the morning's amber road
in the fair schoolroom of the sky
and the affairs of june
in face of the suspense
but state with creeping blood
as pride were all it could
but what that place could be
It Will Be Ample Time
take not my liberty
and then abroad the world he go
and where his feet have run
and at my finger's end
it will be ample time for me
make summer when the lady lie
no one could play it the second time
and when at night our good day done
The Anguish And Now It Gains The Anguish
itself can rest upon
of expectation also
the anguish and the loss
where we with late celestial face
it gains the block and now it gains the door
i tried to drop it in the crowd
and made as he would eat me up
one came the road that i came
For Fear Of Getting To Know If Any
for fear of joggling him!
to know if any human eyes were near
were you ever there?
i think, they call it "god"
then will i not repine,
and so i always bear the cup
one came the road that i came
the day that i was crowned
so instead of getting to heaven, at least
and then a day as huge
and then he closes up
to my quick ear the leaves conferred
it sickened fresh upon my sight
endow the living with the tears
that trusts her boldly up
Not Mourn
for stranger strangers do not mourn
a little road not made of man
and he will tell you skill is late
tho' i get home how late how late
not like the gnat had i
did i sing too loud?
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
A Comb,
as if they just repressed
that calm is but a wall
and a suspicion, like a finger
the grass divides as with a comb,
and left the little angle worm
and one below this morning
there came one drop of giant rain,
it's cooler than the dawn
it's thoughts and just one heart
a little road not made of man
is not a controvertible
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
Just To Feel
then to him who bear
how they will tell the story
just to be poor for barefoot vision
the grass so little has to do
but tell him that it ceased to feel
it cannot be my spirit
but could not make them fit,
would put itself abroad
his own would fall so more
how well i knew the light before
i shall know why when time is over
i never thought to see
As Yet My Heart Be Dry
i should have had the joy
i think that earth feels so
could she have guessed that it would be
what comfort was it wisdom was
as yet my heart be dry
not if the just suspect me
it makes no difference abroad
it always felt to me a wrong
because i know it's true
i've seen?
but swear, and i will let you by,
heaven is what i cannot reach!
would you be the fool to stay?
going to heaven!
"i'm sunrise" need the majesty?
All This And Mine Should Be,
as dying say it does
they wonder if it died on that
i wonder if it weighs like mine,
all this and more if i should tell
the need did not reduce
maybe that would awaken them!
that would not let the will
that yours and mine should be,
but if the lady come
no man he seemed to know;
but he was left alive because
how well i knew the light before
i put my pleasure all abroad
Mind You, I's Tranger, I's Tranger,
'stranger, i wish i knew,'
i 'spose i've got to go the road i'm going,
i found that wing broken today!
mind you, i waited till len said the word,
i have been one acquainted with the night,
these latter about to fall, i thought that only
The Hole,
they are that that talks of going
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
the only other sound's the sweep
the road would fail; and on that side the fire
and roll back down the mound beside the hole,
up the brass barrel, velvet black inside,
on up the failing path, where, if a stone
somehow the change wore out like a prescription,
Was The Better Claim,
wind and window flower
and warm stove-window light,
that sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
and having perhaps the better claim,
was the poorhouse, and those who could afford,
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
so they made the place comfortable with straw,
what had that flower to do with being white,
to see, if in a dream they brought of you,
The Bird Would Have The Rabbit Out Of
when this one fell
but with one step backward taken
but still lies pointed as it plowed the dust,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
half closes the garden path,
but the flower leaned aside
but they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
and yet too ready to believe the most,
they were welcome to their belief,
as the road winds would bring him to his door,
as well to-night as any night,
the bird would cease and be as other birds
nor yet in any spur it may be to ambition,
Comes That Struck The Earth,
and think no more of wall-builders than fools,
broad-shouldered little slabs there in the sunlight
that slowly dawned behind the trees,
the foe thrust back unsafe beyond the rhine,
that struck the earth,
and comes that other fall we name the fall,
For Him To Carry It Was The Case
it seemed god let thee flutter from his gentle clasp,
and ever it was intended so,
the beauties she so truly sees,
saying, and she could have him, and before
but that he knows in singing not to sing,
of really never having meant to keep it,
and that was the case to carry it in,
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
as the road winds would bring him to his door,
Somehow Must Be, As He Went Out And
by leaning back myself, as if the reins
as he went out and in to fetch the cows
was i desired in friendship, partly as some one
and i must be, as he had been, alone,
somehow must have gotten abroad,
the water for which we may have to look
there they have every means proper to do with,
that water never did to land before,
to yield with a grace to reason,
Some Humble Way To Scare Myself With My
he moves in darkness as it seems to me,
god, what a woman! and it's come to this,
and a last sounding word to say,
to earn a living on the concord railroad,
a flower to try its currents where they crossed,
ever to have tree bloom or bear,
and a last sounding word to say,
some humble way to save his self-respect,
to scare myself with my own desert places,
but that was in the woods, to hold my hand
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
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,
Half Closes The Graves Of The Hard Work,
no, not as there is a time to talk,
like a beast's stall, to ease their consciences,
to earn a living on the concord railroad,
they cast on the ground
the graves of men on an opposing hill,
the spoils of the dead,
the understanding of a friend,
the fruited bough of the juniper
half closes the garden path,
she loves the bare, the withered tree;
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
With Me,
"i want him to, he'll have to soon or late,"
he resolves to become intelligible, at least to himself, since there
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
the life from spilling, then the boy saw all
the difficulty of seeing what stood still,
so inconsolably in the face of love,
and heat so close in; but the thought of all
under the hand of the village barber,
the overimportant pair,
as the breeze rises, and turn many-colored
drawing the slow waves whiter and whiter and whiter,
with the glittering things,
come over the hills and far with me,
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
Then Took The Daylight Falls,
since earth is earth, perhaps, not heaven as yet
erect, but not without its waves, as when
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
then took the other, as just as fair,
where bird and flower were one and the same,
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
As The Night Long,
there would be more than ocean-water broken
but more than one as yet, your parasol
all turn and look one way,
where bird and flower were one and the same,
now close the windows and hush all the fields,
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
as the road winds would bring him to his door,
until the strength was shouted out of him,
but not long since in the lumber camps,
nor vainly listen all the night long,
they bring the telephone and telegraph,
the place it reached to blackened instantly,
and the sweet pang it cost me not to call
that now it means to stay,
Scared The River;
its two banks have not shut upon the river;
and show on the water its crystal teeth,
and on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow,
like a limp rose-wreath in a fairy dance,
and in conjunction giving quite a spread,
and a hush falls for all acclaim,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
the roadside flowers, too wet for the bee,
autumn, yes, winter was in the wind;
in clomping off; and scared the outer night,
at broken windows flew out and in,
in summertime with a witching wand,
and a gem-flower waved in a wand!
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,
They Found,
grim giving to do over for them both,
for still others they found,
but we were england's, still colonials,
they fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
they must go down into the dark decayed,
not yet the little dotted in me seek,
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
and bade him leave the pan and stoke the arch,
and bow and accept the end
that struck the earth,
was the poorhouse, and those who could afford,
Upon The Road, To Put A Tree Between
but glad with him, i worked as with his aid,
to raise herself and look again, he spoke
to put a tree between us when he lighted,
of course he's nothing to us, any more
and yet too ready to believe the most,
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
Her Great Weight Creaks The Wood-world's Side
the love of bare november days
upon the full moon's side of the first haycock
the understanding of a friend,
you, of course, are a rose -
with barbed-wire binding, they stood facing this,
broad-shouldered little slabs there in the sunlight
in the wood-world's torn despair
her great weight creaks the barbed wire in its staples
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
had brought to rest,
his hands? she had to look, and ask,
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,
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,'
To Be,
broad-shouldered little slabs there in the sunlight
years afterwards, trailing their leaves on the ground
they plant dead trees for living, and the dead
and simply staying possesses all
so now and never any different,"
so close the windows and not hear the wind,
women and men will make them all the same,
that would have joined the house in flame
they were content to figure in the trees
and question what of the night to be,
to wash the steps with pail and rag,
to step outdoors and take the water dazzle
to leave it to, whether the right to hold
to think of the right thing to say too late,
they had given him back to her, but not to keep,
His Door,
and so i dream of going back to be,
and often they brought so much to say
and tossing so as to scare
sudden and swift and light as that
across the wall as near the wall as they,
will run as hushed as when they were a thought
as the road winds would bring him to his door,
his icicles along the wall to keep;
and back and forth he sways from cheek to cheek,
then lightly stooped to it and fluttering clung,
Upon The Sleep Of Lumber Folk,
now if it was dusk outside,
how was it with him for a second trial,
this was a man, baptiste, who stole one day
and he spoke the bridegroom fair,
that trouble the sleep of lumber folk,
to white rest, and a place of rest
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
and fighting over it perished fain,
a sleepy sound, but mocking half,
that all day fights a nervous inward rage,
a speck that would have been beneath my sight
With Doors That None But The Other Way
off he goes always when i need him most,
and that was why it whispered and did not speak,
unless len took the notion, which he won't,
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
trying to sell his farm and then not selling,
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
of ever coming to the place again
you went to meet the shell's embrace of fire
and left defenseless to the heat and light,
with doors that none but the wind ever closes,
going the other way and they not seen it,
warren, i wish you could have heard the way
if you had any feelings, you that dug
didn't feel anything, and if it did,
The Rocks He Mixed That In The Time
the demon arose from his wallow to laugh,
to meet him in the doorway with the news
when a friend calls to me from the road
and it seems like the time when after doubt
the sun and moon get crossed, but they never touch,
the way he mixed that in with other things,
and plowed between the rocks he couldn't move,
Before The Hand!
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
unsaid between us, brother, and this remained
father and mother married, and mother came,
with those great careless wings,
and alter with age,
before the last went, heavy with dew,
with the least stiffening of her neck and silence,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
with the curves of his axe-helves and his having
or that showed with the lapse of time to vain
to the dark and lament,
forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear
before them over their heads to dry in the sun,
