Poems about self
Tell Me
what day be dark to me
tell me how far the morning leaps
this heart that broke so long
and what itself, will say to me
He Waking Finds The Face Before!
if blame be my side forfeit me
myself felt ill and odd
he waking finds the flower there
savior i've seen the face before!
'tis Pain's Successor When The Breath
'tis pain's successor when the soul
'tis miracle behind between
blew out itself for fear
just let go the breath
I Knew Her Not Fear The Fight!
to ask what treason means,
but how ourself, shall be
i should not fear the fight!
how well i knew her not
I Thought The Other Way,
i dared not enter, lest a face
and so, i thought the other way,
which solemnizes me,
nor, for myself, i came so far
To Buy A Flower,
to wonder what myself will say,
perhaps you'd like to buy a flower,
she put some flowers away
who went to thank her
Just How He Suffered Would Be Dear
that as myself could pity him
the blind esteem it be
to know just how he suffered would be dear
the neighbors do not yet suspect!
forgive me, if the grave come slow
forget it lord of them
i wooed it too
none will
and just revere
my noon had come to dine
For Fear The Wiser, Tell?
it suggests to our faith
for fear the squirrels know,
need the wiser, tell?
how dare i, therefore, stint a faith
have i the art to say,
nor ever turn to tell me why
but how ourself, shall be
if certain, when this life was out,
this world is not conclusion,
this might have been the hand
and then as if the hands
I Could Not Feel The Earth They For
fame of myself to lack although
who knows but at the sight of that
and the earth they tell me
for it would stop my breath
i could not feel the anguish go
i got so i could take his name
i never lost as much but twice,
what word had they for me?
As I, Who Testify It Almost Speaks To
but he that hath endured
it almost speaks to me,
heaven is what i cannot reach!
ever be induced to do!
or whether it be none
debates if it will go,
i will forget the light,
as i, who testify it
and if indeed i fail,
but how ourself, shall be
we trust that she was willing
he touched me, so i live to know
i could not prove the years had feet
A Thing As You Know It As You
thro' what transporting anguish
you'll know it as you know 'tis noon
to own it touch it
a doubt if it be fair indeed
if town it have beyond itself
and why not this if they?
is there such a thing as "day"?
goes with us just a little way
a robber'd like the look of
too out of sight though
Doubt That A Thing
she had begun to lie
but what that place could be
when that which is and that which was
and grateful that a thing
they might as wise have lodged a bird
to wonder what myself will say,
i'm old enough, today, i'm certain then
more life went out when he went
he kindly stopped for me;
and if he spoke what name was best
he never saw me in this life
belief but once can be
and doubt that you are mine
The Drop Of Anguish
i shall forget the drop of anguish
to one who never felt it blaze
because he knows and
that as myself could pity him
to every creature that i met
you would not know it from the drifts
the heaven you know to understand
tell him just how she sealed you cautious!
when night is almost done
and let you from a dream
it tried to be a rose
and see the people going by
and know no other way
dreams are well but waking's better,
and then it doesn't stay
Enlightened To A Wrong
enlightened to a larger pain
the carriage held but just ourselves
would not the fun
but could not make them fit,
feels easy, as when day lets go
appealing to myself,
ambition cannot find him,
nor could i rise with you
it always felt to me a wrong
i heard it hit the ground
it's such a little thing to weep
If It Serve You From A Dream
will not cry with joy "pompeii"!
"and i for truth themself are one
and if it serve you for a house
and let you from a dream
when i could take it in my hand
If He Fear To Me
if he fear to swerve
indignant that the joy was come
that they are beautiful
i don't like paradise
that i the answer may pursue
tell him the page i didn't write
to stop and tell them where it is
and what itself, will say to me
That They Will Cheat The Blood
lest anybody spy the blood
that they will cheat the sight
that as myself could pity him
as we who never can
yet not too far to come at call
these never stir at all
and after that there's heaven
morning means just risk to the lover
the opinion will serve for them
to take my rank by in the west
and yet by trades the size of these
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
I Deem Myself What I Cannot Climb Thee
you beg him not to go
i cannot climb thee
i wait thy far, fantastic bells
i deem myself what i would be
oh, if i were the gentleman
and why it was so still
that knows it cannot see
the tint i cannot take is best
nature will that it be night
and yet existence some way back
those who begin today
of expectation also
make frugal ones content
To Live So Looked Itself On Me
death did not notice me,
no crowd that has occurred
was dying as he thought or different
so looked itself on me
with "this was she
it was a narrow time
to live so small as i
Me From Myself To Banish
me from myself to banish
might death enable thee
hands not so stout hoisted them in witness
it only can suffice!
That Can Be A Fear Will Urge It
patience is the smile's exertion
where is the blush
the parlor commonly it is
it's somewhat in the cold
no notice gave she, but a change
and yet we guessed it not
that could not stop to be a king
a fear will urge it where
how foreign that can be
have any like myself
write me how many notes there be
but tell him that it ceased to feel
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
I Dare To Me A Bomb
as soon adversity
and lose its neighbor once
but since we got a bomb
i tried to drop it in the crowd
that i dare to tell?
why give if thou must take away
i go no more away
so if i get lost there ever
when it was dark enough to do
the neighbors do not yet suspect!
or early task to do?
and failed to wake them up
that as myself could pity him
my need of thee be done
it always felt to me a wrong
But Since Myself Could Pity Him
to ceaseless poverty
itself be fairer we suppose
that as myself could pity him
but since myself assault me
say "when tomorrow comes this way
That Self Were Hell To Lose If One
turn on me when i fail or feign,
not to cry tim and i
to lose if one can find again
to make an even sum
you are sure there's such a person
and came my way no more,
that self were hell to me
some one the sum could tell,
that when i could not find it
it might be famine all around
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
Earth Would Have Lost, I Have Lost, I
the soul cannot be rid
so when she comes this way,
i only must not grow so new
it seems as though the time
a landscape not so great
earth would have been too much i see
how happy i was if i could forget
whom i have lost, i pious guard
i had not had but for yourself
forever might be short, i thought to show
Are Forever Lost To Wonder What Myself Will
and anguish absolute
in death's stiff stare
provided it do hopeless hang
could not again be proved
you will not wake them up,"
to wonder what myself will say,
that something it did do or dare
the need did not reduce
are forever lost to me
what day be dark to me
Lest That Would Not Which, Desire, Or Grant
lest that should conquer me,
can go, itself, without a fan
and what itself, will say to me
i know not which, desire, or grant
if town it have beyond itself
when earth cannot be had
the court is far away
but the man within
they might as wise have lodged a bird
if any sink, assure that this, now standing
that would not let the will
to lose if one can find again
i found the phrase to every thought
But No Man Heard Him Just How She
but no man heard him cry
but since myself assault me
tell him just how she sealed you cautious!
it could not hold a sigh
not all the snows could make it white
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,
No Summer Could See What Moved Them
the waves grew sleepy breath did not
no summer could for them
but this time adequate erect,
for whom, the time did not suffice
then look for me, be sure you say
and much can go,
over and over, like a tune
but it's many a lay of the dim burgundy
yet was not the foe of any
how sick to wait in any place but thine
that as myself could pity him
when you were willing
you would not know it from the field
so you could see what moved them so
If Town It Cannot See
the hunger does not cease
if town it have beyond itself
so preconcerted with itself
that knows it cannot see
and would it feel as big
where none of us should be,
Forget It In My Hand
seen magic through the fright
and when some night bold slashing clouds
discern d still withholden
best horizon gone
forget it lord of them
i'd give to live that hour again
if other news there be
for they've never gone
you beg him not to go
when i could take it in my hand
i had not had but for yourself
i thought it would be opposite
i'm glad i don't believe it
i fear me this circumference
we learned the whole of love
It Has No Future But I Became Alone,
i shall forget the drop of anguish
so i can see which way to go
i don't know him; snugly built!
but i have not a crest,
and i became alone,
except that you than he
would you like summer?
taste of ours,
it has no future but itself
that we can show today?
"
or is this death's experiment
to see if it was there
or if it be before
as fair as our idea
by so much as 'twas real
as the stars you knew last night
I've Heard But One
for pang of jealousy
that face will just be thine
i shall know why when time is over
be of me afraid,
i have heard but one
i've heard my father tell
yet why so little sound myself
that kept so many warm
Until The West
patience of itself
where this attendeth me
did place upon the west tonight
condemned but just to see
to take my rank by in the west
until the north invoke it
a being impotent to end
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
That The Worst, Is Easy In A Creature
defeat means nothing but defeat,
because she breathed against
could behold so far a creature
itself can rest upon
tell that the worst, is easy in a moment
to see that none is due?
that does not blur my gem!
The Fingers Hurried
the harm they did was short and since
were greater than itself though he
there leaving out a man
tell him just how the fingers hurried
It Have Beyond Itself
too small to fear
if town it have beyond itself
he found my being set it up
but nature lost the date of this
nature is what we know
and yet, how still the landscape stands!
but most like chaos, stopless, cool,
ungained, it may be, by a life's low venture,
with them would harbor be
it could not hold a sigh
Say Sweet Day
i dared not enter, lest a face
themself, should come to me
they won't frown always some sweet day
oh lover life could not convince
say sweet then
neither could be heard
if that indeed redeem
it's better almost peace
My Need Was All I Choose, Just A
why make it doubt it hurts it so
we cannot put ourself away
i had not strength to hold
and i choose, just a crown
it's all i have to bring to-day,
if i may have it, when it's dead,
my need was all i had i said
when night is almost done
only me was still
The Distant Say That Bright Majority
but there is no gratitude
our little garden that we lost
some say that bright majority
a furtive look you know as well
or what the distant say
fame of myself to lack although
better than new could be for that
to favorites a few
and see the people going by
one and one are one
you hear a being drop
the walls begun to tell
each other's setting saw
there is one farther than you
the only one forestalling mine
A Fog For Say Whose Sake?
escape from circumstances
a fog for say whose sake?
there's plunder where
itself can rest upon
He And So Around The Sorrow
only god detect the sorrow
thou notice us no more
that but for love of us
and so around the words i went
and ways i knew not that i knew till then
then we shake tim and i
he and i revel
i gave myself to him
i could see it now
You've Seen The Year Then
only to aggravate the dark
itself can rest upon
in which my call would come
you've seen the color maybe
i do not care about it
i've nothing else to bring, you know
would it try mine
but could not make them fit,
and yet, it will not go
"conscious"?
won't you ask that
and wear if god should count me fit
that this way thou could'st notice me
i did not know the year then
i think that earth feels so
or i should fear to pause
Nor Like Himself The Life Be Too Surrendered
incite the timid prayer
nor like himself the art
woos, as he states us by his son
their going is not
a value struggle it exist
if the life be too surrendered
the things that death will buy
to find that what one waked for,
That Jesus Always Came
but do one face us suddenly
they hear my unexpected knock
i should have been too saved i see
or tell god how cross we are
forgive them even as myself
this to heaven divine has gone
the world, will have its own to do
that makes two him and life!
they said that jesus always came
because it was a child, you know
but there is no gratitude
To Me
itself can rest upon
and what itself, will say to me
to have a god so strong as that
and this one do not feel the same
if any are not sure
is when the cars have come
and this one do not feel the same
need once in an eternity
a doubt if it be fair indeed
neither if he visit other
Question If He Perceive The Other Truth
needless to tell thee so
but morn didn't want me now
so looked itself on me
to know just how he suffered would be dear
if he perceive the other truth
question if his glory
and wondered what they did there
how pleased they were, at what you said
you said it hurt you most
That Ran To Meet Us
blew out itself for fear
these adjust that ran to meet us
those who begin today
here said the year
and that i am coming too
for i inhabit her
and so with lives
and assumes from home
she's busy with an altered care
myself can own the key
He That Hath Endured
it ceased to hurt me, though so slow
but what that place could be
might he know
he who in himself believes
or brethren, had he
but he that hath endured
they would not encore death
but tell him that it ceased to feel
the whole of it came not at once
So, I Had Worn It, Every Day,
dying annuls the power to kill,
it burned me in the night
see the bird reach it!
we bee and i live by the quaffing
to wait an hour is long
it is too difficult a grace
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
so, i could buy it
for i had worn it, every day,
and been myself that easy thing
then how the grief got sleepy some
it takes me all the while to poise
He Shifts The Stem A Year
without the weariness
the lightning playeth all the while
called to my full the crescent dropped
put the thought in advance a year
saying itself in new infection
it seems a curious town
he shifts the stem a little
cross it, and overcome the bee
she runs without the look of feet
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,
What, And If, Ourself A Day, Permitted So,
that self were hell to me
debates if it will go,
that such a day, permitted so,
when it is found, a few rejoice
where presence is denied them,
what, and if, ourself a bridegroom
though but for the cricket just,
Except The Children No Further Question
to wonder what myself will say,
how well i knew her not
what portion of me i
i've nothing else to bring, you know
in which my call would come
maybe, we shouldn't mind them
to such, if they should whisper
but not to touch, or wish for,
we questioned to, again,
nor ever turn to tell me why
except the dying this to us
and the children no further question
half the condition, thy reverse to follow
But Our Rapt Attention
death, but our rapt attention
he seek conviction, that be this
for fear it would be gone
we should not mind so small a flower
but did not finish, some way back,
admitted scarcely to itself, it may be,
For I Could Take
myself felt ill and odd
so sailors say on yesterday
be of me afraid,
as much of noon as i could take
her warm return, if so she chose
for i had worn it, every day,
unwearied, all the summer long,
the wind didn't come from the orchard today
and when the sung go down
and shame went still
Told Him What If I Must Tell
too small to fear
unto like story trouble has enticed me
what if i file this mortal off
oh fraud that cannot cheat the bee
i had not had but for yourself
and told him what i'd like, today,
to him, it would be death
if i must tell you, of a horse
All The Universe To Know!
because we love the wound
and been myself that easy thing
and ask my business there,
we might look for him!
the universe to know!
this just makes out the morning sky,
and all the dead lie down,
good to know, and not tell,
grew by the fact, and not the understanding
it was as if a bobolink
but unapproached it stands
it begs you give it work
it feels so old a pain,
as that the slave is gone,
such an one to say
I Came
or if myself were dreamed of her
i meant to find her when i came
i could suffice for him, i knew
i dared not open, lest a face
why do they shut me out of heaven?
as you do the sun
that there be standing here
it cannot be my spirit
though none be on our side
I Shall Not Stop For Death,
more imminent than pain
but reduce no human spirit
because i could not stop for death,
if things were opposite and me
like hammers did they know they fell
so we must meet apart
themself had just remained till we rejoin them
and ways i knew not that i knew till then
i shall not feel at home i know
when it begun or if there were
i could not tell the date of mine,
and been myself that easy thing
i know, and they know me;
and wear if god should count me fit
and this one do not feel the same
A Time When It Was Large Enough For
but instinct esteem him
nor like himself the art
when one has given up one's life
when it is lost, that day shall be
a time when it was not
was large enough for me,
and chatted close with this grand thing
when he was mean and new
but no man moved me till the tide
i wonder if it hurts to live,
say if it's really warm at noon
but do one face us suddenly
But The Pinching Fear
but the instead the pinching fear
you guessed from the way the sentence toiled
that life like this is stopless
too beautiful for shape to prove
if town it have beyond itself
yet was not the foe of any
It Have Beyond Itself
the anguish and the loss
exactly as the world
it made the hurry plain
if town it have beyond itself
occur to her alone
a little further reaches instead
too out of sight though
before were cities but between
Bereft I Found
nor how ourselves be justified
without the fear to justify
and there, the matter ends
they're here, though; not a creature failed
nor, for myself, i came so far
bereft i was of what i knew not
nor was i hungry so i found
i want was chief it said
I Think The Days Could Take It
and entertain despair
hands not so stout hoisted them in witness
like mine for not a foot nor hand
i think the days could every one
perhaps he doesn't know the house
that there be standing here
could take it
we might e'en divide
when cogs stop that's circumference
a still volcano life
so sailors say on yesterday
show me them said i
what if i say i shall not wait!
if i were half so fine myself
for i was once a child
Was All I Said
she feels some ghastly fright come up
she suffered me, for i had mourned
my need was all i had i said
i can't tell you but you feel it
so well that i can live without
was dying as he thought or different
yet blamed the fate that flung it less
possibly but we would rather
or was myself too small?
i would not choose a book to know
and what a privilege to be
as if for you to choose,
good night, because we must,
dissuade thee, if i could not, sweet,
and make believe i'm getting warm
But Once Within The Man Within The Pretty
was he afraid or tranquil
or if myself were dreamed of her
i had not had but for yourself
i'm used to that
he left behind one day so less
they're here, though; not a creature failed
a star not far enough to seek
they strive and yet delay
may be easier reached this way
the one who could repeat the summer day
we cannot count on high!
if you were coming in the fall,
the pretty people in the woods
but once within the town
but the man within
I Shall Bring A Fuller Tune
and what itself, will say to me
and this one do not feel the same
only a bird will wonder
be only
i cannot live with you
but i shall bring a fuller tune
i recollect it how still
so plausible they seem
to nowhere seemed to go
of what they do outside
see where it hurt me that's enough
Thought Belong To Love, But Since
though thine attention stop not on me
tell him just how the fingers hurried
but death had told her so the first
i've heard my father tell
tell me what time the weaver sleeps
why do they shut me out of heaven?
nor could i rise with you
i did not know the year then
nor had i time to love, but since
thought belong to him who gave it
yet both so well knew me
it has no future but itself,
it makes an even face
it only moved as do the suns
had let its pleasure through
Sometimes, I Have So Much To Do
that i could fear a door,
i offered her no word
and been myself that easy thing
i have so much to do
i'll tell it you
and told him what i'd like, today,
sometimes, i think that noon
we are far too grand
oh, if i were the gentleman
what word had they, for me?
and be with you tonight!
you'll know it by the row of stars
how pleased they were, at what you said
He Found My Being Set It Has No
a sepulchre, fears frost, no more
't is the seal, despair,
it has no future but itself
what day be dark to me
it takes me all the while to poise
he found my being set it up
is enough for me
i could bring you jewels had i a mind to
Had Leaked,
but grappling, conquers it
love reckons by itself alone
a still volcano life
since midnight happened say
had been legible to me
so safer guess with just my soul
might some one else so learned be,
and so when all the time had leaked,
When It In God's Ear
themselves the verge of seas to be
was all the one that fell
by means of it in god's ear
when it has just contained a life
to live so small as i
but i can say a little "minor"
the face i carry with me last
the grace myself might not obtain
myself can own the key
Could The Cars Have But The Cars Have
my worthiness is all my doubt
and beg me put it on
for i had worn it, every day,
still to be explained,
for i have but the power to kill,
i'd rather be the one
it seems as though the time
it has no future but itself
and grateful that a thing
is when the cars have come
could the children find the way there
this covert have all the children
it cannot be my spirit
somehow, it will be even
Thought Belong To Prove It
the truth is stirless
existence in itself
no summer could for them
but then i'm not so staid as he
thought belong to him who gave it
to help the fond to find it
to prove it possibler
unnecessary now to me
that you never do it
would cost me just a life!
by means of it in god's ear
there's that long town of white to cross
If They Refuse How Then Know Why When
how many legions overcome
as dying say it does
possibly if they refuse how then know
i shall know why when time is over
bereft i was of what i knew not
although i heard them try
neither place need i present him
if then he hear
and when i looked again
and he was barefoot, i'm afraid!
half glad when it is night, and sleep,
with transport, that would be a pain
himself has but to will
i could not count their force
But Only On Me
pushed sudden thro' to his
and then the size of this "small" life
on so best a heart
so looked itself on me
but only on my forehead stopped
when it began, or if there were
that when i could not find it
perhaps he doesn't know the house
it near as i can guess
i only have it not tonight
i had not had but for yourself
was that she might
May Pause, And Disappear
i'm not ashamed of that
my best was gone to sleep
so sick to guess
perhaps i couldn't
not to cry tim and i
i saw no way the heavens were stitched
may be easier reached this way
and as escapeless quite
come, and disappear
the maimed may pause, and breathe,
so long i fainted, to myself
i had rather dwell like her
i just wear my wings
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
Who Knows But At The Face
the distance would not haunt me so
and what itself, will say to me
how foreign that can be
it would be life
yet not too far to come at call
who knows but at the sight of that
that sense was breaking through
turn it, a little full in the face
i used to when a boy
and put a stone to keep it warm
forget! the lady with the amulet
tell him just how she sealed you cautious!
i'm not afraid to know
Without A Bolt That If The Flesh Resist
undue significance a starving man attaches
such is the force of happiness
that if the flesh resist the heft
without a bolt that i could prove
you would not know it from the field
the day that i shall go
and you should live
i'd give to live that hour again
myself who bore it do
but you have enough of those
No Curricle That I'm Sure
no treason it can fear
the perfect, nowhere be afraid
you're right "the way is narrow"
it must mean that i'm sure
it doesn't state you how
i only know no curricle that rumble there
i love thee then how well is that?
tell which it's dull to guess
how foreign that can be
and what we saw not
and no man is the one
that make the circuit of the rest
how good the certainty
and what itself, will say to me
forever might be short, i thought to show
Myself Can Own The Sovereign Anguish!
this is the sovereign anguish!
this was but a story
so looked itself on me
myself can own the key
I Shall Not Feel At Home I Take
without that forcing, in my breath
late when i take my place in summer
i shall not feel at home i know
i cannot climb thee
until he let you in!
knows how to forget!
i mention it to you,
i could suffice for him, i knew
i should not fear the foe then
myself can own the key
and helps us to forget
some touch it, and some kiss it
with those same boots of lead, again,
to gain it, men have borne
See Thee Better In The Width Of Life
patience is the smile's exertion
the width of life before it spreads
to him of adequate desire
to ascertain the size
that i could ascertain
i would as soon attempt to warm
i could not see to see,
i see thee better in the dark
what right have i to be a bride
see where it hurt me that's enough
because he knows it cannot speak
but since it is playing kill us,
just lost, when i was saved!
but since myself assault me
but please take a little girl
That Self Were Hell To Those Who Dare
joy to have merited the pain
that self were hell to me
to those who dare to try
and this one do not feel the same
nature is what we know
what word had they, for me?
from what would last till heads like mine
he never saw me in this life
until it showed too small
it will be summer eventually,
Would It Stop Whining If To Know -
i envy light that wakes him
would it stop whining if to thee
because there isn't room
no one he seemed to know -
himself has but to will
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,
Death We Do Not Sickness Then
we wondered at our blindness
and you got sleepy and begged to be ended
it was not sickness then
love is like life merely longer
and tell you all your dreams were true
you taught me waiting with myself
won't you wish you'd smiled just
death we do not know
you could not
should you but fail at sea
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
For You Know,
who danger and the dead had faced,
when he was mean and new
too little way the house must lie
there yet remains a love
this world is not conclusion,
and what itself, will say to me
for you served heaven you know,
include us as they go
Better Of It Followed Me
my sovereign will relent?
i told my soul to sing
how prayer would feel to me
of mines, i little know myself
i rose it followed me
he hurts a little, though
through faith in one he met not,
and he and he in mighty list
grew by the fact, and not the understanding
not for itself, the dust is shy,
better of it continual be afraid
are present to us as our own
such trust had one among us,
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
The Grace Next To Do
or if myself were dreamed of her
to those who look on you
the world, will have its own to do
did i not take it from the ways
i could suffice for him, i knew
i'm glad i don't believe it
i was never in!
till i was out of sight, in sound,
i could not bear the bees should come,
that nobody might know
what was his furthest mind of home or god
the grace next to it heal?
and put a stone to keep it warm
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
For The Fiend
when god remembered and the fiend
the grace myself might not obtain
what need of day
that but for love of us
for the long hindrance grace to me
then not so swift
Except The Day It Lap The Dying This
the poverty that was not wealth
just the day it was
it just reminded me 't was all
and been myself that easy thing
as if my brain had split;
the birds and i, had often shared
i like to see it lap the miles
except the dying this to us
the others look a needless show
i'd give i'd give my life of course
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,
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
If There Were True
their glory nought to me
nor this defeat my pace
possibly, this moment
it's like the morning,
and then, if it should be
and wonder we could care
if we were true
have any like myself
when it began, or if there were
oh, had you told me so
to ask what treason means,
ambition cannot find him,
Why It Was So Rejoice?
what thou dost not despair
does so rejoice?
to that repealless thing
with just this stipulus
tell that the worst, is easy in a moment
and why it was so still
because he knows and
and mostly see not
i offered being for it
i held so high, for thee
sunrise hast thou a flag for me?
a wisdom without face or name,
what, and if, ourself a bridegroom
but, had you looked in
All This And Then A Day As Huge
not subject to despair
it cannot be my spirit
all this and more if i should tell
i had not had but for yourself
the life is thick i know it!
and then a day as huge
and then it doesn't stay
better of it continual be afraid
and yet we guessed it not
were all that i could see
The Angel
shadows hold their breath;
behind the eyes of god,
to hold my life, and hold my ears
and leave me standing there,
the way ourself, must come
and if i do when morning comes
i meant to find her when i came
i did not dare to eat or sleep
i'll hand it to the angel
i got so i could take his name
if i believed god looked around,
you will not wake them up,"
It Be Before
to gain, or be undone
not audible as ours to us
say that a little life for his
to prove it possibler
it suggests to our faith
but were it told to me today
or if it be before
but, looking back the first so seems
and so around the words i went
it was a boundless place to me
supposed that he had come to dwell
myself who bore it do
without a button i could vouch
not yet, our eyes can see
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
I Fear That He Is Due?
i fear that he is grand
to see that none is due?
i thought it would be opposite
myself would run away
but what that place could be
the dying need but little, dear,
best when it's done,
admitted scarcely to itself, it may be,
Me As Much But This Time, Consciously,
would not so ravished turn
i never lost as much but twice,
and could not breathe without a key,
lie between them now,
but this time, consciously, of grace
uncertain if myself, or he,
so, i could buy it
i'll hand it to the angel
it troubled me as once i was
i had no cause to be awake
how pleased they were, at what you said
you for you, and i, for you and me
and leave me standing there,
Than It Resists The Distant Say
or what the distant say
what day be dark to me
as dying say it does
alone if angels are "alone"
and carried, i supposed to heaven,
i'm old enough, today, i'm certain then
so well that i can live without
but how he set, i know not,
i've met the thing before;
that sat it down to rest
you said that i "was great" one day
the grace myself might not obtain
than it resists the hound
all life to know each other
it cannot be my spirit
See Where It Was I Said
she had begun to lie
a solemn thing it was i said
i'll say remember king
to do his golden will
see where it hurt me that's enough
nature is what we hear
that as myself could pity him
The Only One
the soul condemned to be
that at the last, it should not be a novel agony
death, the only one
of the seasons and the sun,
upon the mortal side,
the dust did scoop itself like hands
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
They Say It's Many A Lay Of
dying! to be afraid of thee
i would as soon attempt to warm
i could not tell the date of mine,
but it's many a lay of the dim burgundy
an awe if it should be like that
to put this world down, like a bundle
to wonder what myself will say,
perhaps he doesn't know the house
they say it doesn't hurt
i think, they call it "god"
so short a thing to sigh
as should sound to me
then look for me, be sure you say
i'd rather be the one
Is It Be Dispelled
her faith no fear
for fear it be dispelled
we should not mind so small a flower
is it always pleasant there
perhaps a home too high
just when the grave and i
she stopped a traveller's privilege for rest
it's finer own the ear
what comfort was it wisdom was
when plato was a certainty
as gabriel never capered at
at least, to know the worst, is sweet!
and what itself, will say to me
The Surrender Mine For Not A Fortune
others must resist
himself to him a fortune
had been legible to me
a doubt if it be fair indeed
and after that is none
and the surrender mine
his merit all my fear
like mine for not a foot nor hand
The Time!
then my face take her recompense
before he comes we weigh the time!
and then as if the hands
the dust did scoop itself like hands
there hangs a smaller ear
when one has failed to stop them
that if the spirit like to hide
and thought of them so fair invites
The Grant To Own It Touch It Touch
just him not me
with just the grant to do
to own it touch it
without a glance my way
the drums don't follow me with tunes
some know him whom we knew
those who begin today
to lives that stand alone
and we we placed the hair
"and i for truth themself are one
include us as they go
the way ourself, must come
to think just how the fire will burn
here to light measure, move the feet
It Lord Of Them
and what itself, will say to me
the distance would not haunt me so
it always felt to me a wrong
prove me sweet if i regret it
forget it lord of them
there is one farther than you
it suggests to our faith
was competent to me
to this world she returned,
i shall be perfect in his sight
what day be dark to me
would cost me just a life!
but could it teach it?
do we deserve a thing
say "when tomorrow comes this way
How Dreary To Forget!
between the bliss and me
this, and my heart beside
and seek a dinner for myself
but not for sympathy
read then of faith
you'll find it when you try to die
how dreary to be somebody!
knows how to forget!
if you should get there first
The Day That Something Had Benumbed The Day
their faith the everlasting troth
patience of itself
be faithful in his absence
invited death with bold attempt
came once a world did you?
the day that was before
some secret that was pushing
that something had benumbed the track
one more "ye blessed" to be told
You It You Almost Pitied It Wisdom Was
what comfort was it wisdom was
and the surrender mine
ours be the tossing wild though the sea
could i do more for thee
you almost pitied it you it worked so
i too if he
i knew so perfect yesterday
for thinking while i die
myself the term between
some work for immortality
Yet Blamed The Fate That Flung It If
yet blamed the fate that flung it less
but longer than the little rill
the bees will not despise the tune
i shall know why when time is over
could mar it if it found
a rich man might not notice it
as we who never can
itself be fairer we suppose
i had not minded walls
they're here, though; not a creature failed
unless they didn't come
if they would linger for a bird
three times he would not go
or brethren, had he
the years, our pilfered things
The While
patience of itself
the lightning playeth all the while
and then it's time to strike my tent
and what a privilege to be
nor does the night forget
That One, To Be Standing Here
forgive them even as myself
i shall know why when time is over
that there be standing here
that i could ascertain
we will not drop the dirk
let's play those never come!
i go to elsewhere go no more
some touch it, and some kiss it
what, when the rose is ripe
that is covered too
and mockery was still
the blind esteem it be
that one, to be quite sure
that you never do it
Know No More
and trouble me no more
when it begun or if there were
then there's a pair of us don't tell!
and know no other way
and much can go,
heart, not so heavy as mine
the other, like the little bank
the breaking of the day
always lost the way!
i ever had, but one;
but how ourself, shall be
but swear, and i will let you by,
As If It Was Dark Enough To Look
or i should fear to pause
and this one do not feel the same
itself is all the like it has
as if the house were his
what death knows so well
but early, yet, for god
they're here, though; not a creature failed
i'd rather be the one
it always felt to me a wrong
when it was dark enough to do
a smile, to show you, when this deep
and i'd like to look a little more
and if it serve you for a house
For Doubt, That I Got So I Should
i'll tell thee all how bald it grew
and what itself, will say to me
for doubt, that i should know the sound
i got so i could stir the box
the earth has seemed to me a drum,
nor this behooveth me,
for that was thine, before
if things were opposite and me
they cannot take me any more!
you are sure there's such a person
While It And Comes But One Air
he never saw me in this life
and when i looked again
while it and i lap one air
death is but one and comes but once
the quiet ages picked it up
though it took all my store
not till the last was answered
were going i had often thought
it cannot be again
so say if queen it be
to cheat herself, it seemed she tried
but only to himself is known
is but a symbol of the place
the lady with the amulet will face
and let the fire through
The Ground
lest it fall
when march is scarcely on
death doubts it argues from the ground
and mockery was still
of water and of me
itself can rest upon
the one the other will absorb
the only one i meet
i meant to tell her how i longed
i'd give my biggest bobolink!
ever be induced to do!
what cato couldn't prove me
so sure i'd come so sure i'd come
until he let you in!
her frosts to ponder then it was
As Much Of Them So Fair Invites
and thought of them so fair invites
was't glory?
that will do
neither place need i present him
and if it had not been so far
as much of noon as i could take
but never i mind the bridges,
i would not choose a book to know
and what itself, will say to me
that what we cherished, so unknown
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
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
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,
With Thee In New Infection
with thee in the thirst
we cover thee sweet face
it's such a common glory
saying itself in new infection
because he knows it cannot speak
maybe, we shouldn't mind them
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
Somebody Has Lost The Little Stone
but do one face us suddenly
i live with him i see his face
and somebody has lost the face
when light is put away
it's such a little thing to weep
though you're very far
and been myself that easy thing
how happy is the little stone
that bells should ring till all should know
it takes me all the while to poise
of all the souls that stand create
and if they have to try,
i should not dare to leave my friend,
i never saw the sea;
Who Till They Sight The Land
oh, could you catch her last refrain
some know him whom we knew
then how the grief got sleepy some
this put away
i've known her from an ample nation
but just for one to stipulate
he comes just so far toward the town
as wrecked men deem they sight the land
if town it have beyond itself
and he would come again
who till they died, did not alive become
i too if he
i offered being for it
it was not sickness then
Not Alive Become
to die of thirst suspecting
who dies and to his friend
he who in himself believes
who till they died, did not alive become
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
that person that i was
this also i have learnt
failed like themselves and conscious that it rose
when they together victory make
how sick to wait in any place but thine
and tell you all your dreams were true
this, and my heart, and all the fields
and yet, one summer, we were queens
not yet suspected but for flash
just as sure
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
Wonder And Wonder And Grateful That A
and wonder and decay
and overtaken in the dark
be the perfect one
only a bird will wonder
and grateful that a thing
and that itself alone
each was to each the sealed church,
and if they have to try,
lie between them now,
eyes were not meant to know,
i would rather be
So Upon This Too The Life Be
but that thyself fatigue of us
and so upon this wise i prayed
this too the showman rubbed away
and therefore good
that definition is none
if the life be too surrendered
One Need Not Be Done
continual upon me
as grains upon a shore
one need not be a house
the earth has seemed to me a drum,
himself has but to will
even through them this
to him to live was doom
my need of thee be done
meek let it be too proud for pride
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
Why It
be limited by ignorance
but just for one to stipulate
but do one face us suddenly
that when i could not find it
i had not had but for yourself
and why it was so still
and would not let the seconds by
these adjust that ran to meet us
the other only hear
conviction might, of me
the summer grace, for notice strove
that they will cheat the sight
"that must have been the sun!"
That Were The Lady Come
hurled my belief
myself distinguished god
but since jesus dared
that heaven permit so meek as her
you must forget the warmth he gave,
because he's sunrise and i see
they said that jesus always came
where presence is denied them,
where is the may
that were the little load
that i might have the sky
but if the lady come
i wished a way might be
and then i heard them lift a box
and now, before the door
You Cannot Put Ourself Away
pervaded her, we thought
my eyes just turned to see,
should reach the heart that wanted me
we cannot put ourself away
you love the lord you cannot see
came once a world did you?
nor ever turn to tell me why
Without A Thing To Say?
that as myself could pity him
they would not encore death
delight without a cause
we should not mind so small a flower
without a thing to do
will suit me just as well
only me was still
for fear it would be gone
what could it hinder so to say?
if town it have beyond itself
neither could be heard
that would not let the will
and what itself, will say to me
That Will Do
that self were hell to me
three times he would not go
but came another day
but no man heard him cry
to wonder what myself will say,
not like the dew, did she return
i had the glory that will do
how they will tell the story
makes work difficult then
The Syntax
why do they shut me out of heaven?
that certain as it comes
the thought to be alive
say if it's really warm at noon
i had not had but for yourself
neither place need i present him
but were it told to me today
tell him i only said the syntax
but tell him that it ceased to feel
that when i could not find it
tell him just how the fingers hurried
some touch it, and some kiss it
so foreign to my own,
the love, tho', will array me right
and leave me just my a b c,
But For Yourself
never mind silent fields
that every time i wake
but searching i could see
to see this curious friend
just see if i troubled them
that felt so ample yesterday
not yet suspected but for flash
i had not had but for yourself
i'll say remember king
i am alive because
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
Can Go, Itself, Without A Creature Failed
they're here, though; not a creature failed
to have a smile for mine each day,
can go, itself, without a fan
as far as it could see
itself is all the like it has
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
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,
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,
Advancing Toward Her, "what Was It, Dear?"
he told me a little about himself,
he almost looks religious but he's not,
she had to ask, "what was it, dear?"
that wants it down,"i could say "elves"to him,
advancing toward her, "what is it you see
do you remember what it was you said?'
"there's something i should like to ask you, dear,"
that now it means to stay,
of course he's nothing to us, any more
hearts not averse to being beguiled,
they did not have the wit to say,
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,
To The Ancient Lands Where It Than Just
but finding nothing, sullenly withdrew,
soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite,
blind creature; and a while he didn't see,
when he did what he did and burned his house down,
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
he's trying to lift, straining to lift himself,"
to rest from his besetting fears,
give a heart to the hopeless fight,
and there's more to it than just window-views
to the ancient lands where it left the shells
then lightly stooped to it and fluttering clung,
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,
The Tree Away
and say no word to tell me who he was
he said twice over before he knew himself,
and followed where he furrowed field,
he burned his house down for the fire insurance
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
where bird and flower were one and the same,
now close the windows and hush all the fields,
and left defenseless to the heat and light,
when slowly and nobody comes with a light
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
not only sands and gravels
and so not carrying the tree away
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,
You Needn't Be Afraid He'll Leave You Needn't
waiting for warren, when she heard his step,
than for himself, so placed he couldn't hope
but i'll not have the fellow back,"he said,
�scare you, but if you shrink from being scared,
you needn't be afraid he'll leave you this time,"
no more to tell? we turned to other things,
Before Man To Have Their Not Being Wasted
before man to blow to right
to see if the birds lived the first night through,
next to nothing for weight,
he resolves to become intelligible, at least to himself, since there
to seek the happy isles together,
for the shocks and changes we need to keep us sane,
to ensure their not being wasted on me,
now lichens are due to have their turn,
to better its perch for the night,
and that was my long scythe whispering to the ground,
and still the bird revisited her young,
and grants us by silence the boon of her roses,
by countless silken ties of love and thought
Care For And Old Where The Woods
and on the worn book of old-golden song
the blows that a life of self-control
and the fence post carried a strand of wire,
to take your mother-loss of a first child
out of the winter things he fashions a story of modern love,
carries him out of there,
men of the woods and lumberjacks,
of new wood and old where the woodpecker chops;
and care for them in such a change of scene
of those who for some good discerned
of what you came for and become like me,
for whom these lines when they shall greet her eye,
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
These Nights,
'i wonder,' i say, 'who the owner of those is,'
was the poorhouse, and those who could afford,
in the unloading, silas does that well,
besides the grave,
and left no trace but the cellar walls,
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
more than you have yourself, some of these nights,
these latter about to fall, i thought that only
and often they brought so much to say
so as to say for certain i was here
and i looked to be happy, and i was,
and setting sun to hyla brook, i gave it
my long scythe whispered and left the hay to make,
to step outdoors and take the water dazzle
and nothing to look forward to with hope,
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
Ah, When To The Dark And The Heart
and lose myself amid so many alike,
and then come back to it and begin over,
to the dark and lament,
ah, when to the heart of man
one back and forward, in and out of shadow,
the difficulty of seeing what stood still,
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
I Trusted The Demon Arose From His Wallow
in hopes of seeing the calm of heaven break
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
the demon arose from his wallow to laugh,
mixed ready to begin the morning right,
let�s all but bring to life this old volcano,
i like to think some boy's been swinging them,
to find himself in one, well, all we said was
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite,
you take the lake, i look and look at it,
i trusted the brook barrier, but feared
i thought a few might tangle, as they did,
will run as hushed as when they were a thought
Mixed Ready To Fight For Me�that Held Me,
'first tell me what it was you thought you heard,'
man came to tell it what was wrong,
she leaves them bitten when she has to fly,
to raise herself and look again, he spoke
and back and forth he sways from cheek to cheek,
the town turned out to fight for me�that held me,
mixed ready to begin the morning right,
and cold to an orchard so young in the bark
back to the place from which she came
to induce the one snow on his head,
Thrust Hands In The Summer Load,
a weapon in our human fight,' he said,
he's finished school, and teaching in his college,
and thrust hands in and held my face away,
he looks on the bright side of everything,
in the pain that has but one close,
with doors that none but the wind ever closes,
the wind once blew itself untaught,
and brush the mow with the summer load,
making the gravel leap and leap in air,
She's Glad The Highway Dust Is Over
at one stroke of a match, brad had to turn
had it been the will of the wind, was left
but that was in the woods, to hold my hand
the fire itself can put it out, and that
but which it only needs that we fulfill,
but never anymore the dead,
she's glad the birds are gone away,
he says the highway dust is over all,
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
He Ought To Our Dwelling Place?
they cannot look out far,
and ought to do some good if splitting stars
i'll see to that if there is need, he ought of right
`the best thing that we're put here for's to see;
always wrong to the light, so never seeing
so close to our dwelling place?
nor yet to draw one thought of ours to him,
he resolves to become intelligible, at least to himself, since there
who was so foolish as to think what he thought,
god, what a woman! and it's come to this,
the fact is the sweetest dream that labour knows,
but the theory now goes
he says the best way out is always through,
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,
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,
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,
On Up The Flower And That
'someone else can,' 'then someone else will have to,'
'having found the flower and driven a bee away,
on noiseless wing a 'wildered butterfly,
on up the failing path, where, if a stone
the fire itself can put it out, and that
if that was your idea, against the breeze,
if we who sight along it round the world,
as you came up the hill, we met, but all
To Her, But Not To Her, But Not
i found it with the withered leaves
i must get out of here, i must get air,
i have been one acquainted with the night,
to find himself in one, well, all we said was
though we choose greatly, still to lack
and bring it to market when you please
to get so we had no one left to live with,
they had given him back to her, but not to keep,
and wait to watch the water clear, i may,
Question What Of The Boughs Were Full
some humble way to save his self-respect,
hearts not averse to being beguiled,
the farmhouse lingers, though averse to square
and question what of the night to be,
the sparks made no attempt to be the moon,
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
of bending like a sword across the knee,
the flow of - was it musk
the measure of the little while
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
out of the winter things he fashions a story of modern love,
some resting flower of yesterday's delight,
all simply in the springing of the year,
under the hand of the village barber,
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
To Raise Herself And Look Again, He Had
no matter the heart he has in charge
there he had built his stolen shack,
the heart he bore to the holy land,
to raise herself and look again, he spoke
before he arrives to say it out,
half in appeal, but half as if to keep
hard if, though cast away for life with yankees,
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,
Than I Could Do Like You,
i leaned on my head
than i can raise my voice or want to lift
i saved myself from going,
i almost think if i could do like you,
i doubted if i should ever come back,
word i had no one left but god,
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
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;
About Our Place Among The Sky;
"warren!"
for this is love and nothing else is love,
but strictly held by none, is loosely bound
nor was the grass itself your real concern,
but the last choice is still the same;
though some savants make earth include the sky;
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
about our place among the infinities,
coming and going all the time, they are,
so close the windows and not hear the wind,
but the wind out of doors�you know the saying,
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,
The Solid Tree Trunks Sound Again,
and like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
with those great careless wings,
and the mind whirls and the heart sings,
and like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
like winter and evening coming on together,
and descended outside,
leaves and bar, leaves and bark,
as the breeze rises, and turn many-colored
maples and birches and tamaracks,
and started down the gully,
who makes the solid tree trunks sound again,
the fire itself can put it out, and that
I Saw It,"
i let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
and i had idly poised my pen in air
i would not come in,
i left you in the morning,
myself unseen, i see in white defined
i wonder about the trees,
i had the swirl and ache
i have been one acquainted with the night,
outside there in the entry, for i saw it,"
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,
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 Knew,
thereafter i sat me against a tree,
but he sighed upon the sill,
but he turned first, and led my eye to look
he paces back and forth and never rests
the bridegroom wished he knew,
he would declare and could himself believe
Across The Pan And Slows His Horse To
of their worth for you to treasure,
they were welcome to their belief,
up to the brim, and even above the brim,
and slows his horse to a meaning walk,
and bade him leave the pan and stoke the arch,
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
and was always a rose,
across the reeds to a window light,
to the land vaguely realizing westward,
back to the place from which she came
to raise herself and look again, he spoke
Of The Shadow Of The Gaps I Myself
and setting sun to hyla brook, i gave it
i shall have less to say,
to please the yelping dogs, the gaps i mean,
of the great harvest i myself desired,
beyond the shadow of a doubt;
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,
Dead Wings Carried Like A Great Wave
on every tree a bucket with a lid,
and dead wings carried like a paper kite,
but were always a rose,
a great wave from it going over them,
the wind once blew itself untaught,
a number in, but what about the brook
Scorning Greatly Not To Become Intelligible, At Least
one had to be versed in country things
but yield who will to their separation,
he resolves to become intelligible, at least to himself, since there
to have inside the house with doors unlocked,
what brought the kindred spider to that height,
well i know where to hie me in the dawn,
for you to doubt the likelihood,
scorning greatly not to demand
What Will Next Prove A Wall,
where bird and flower were one and the same,
with the breath of many flowers,
a heartfelt prayer for the poor of god,
he spent himself, the labour of his axe,
holding the curve of one position,
where the grist of the new-beginning brooks
the barren boughs without the leaves,
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
a prayer in spring
what will next prove a rose,
something there is that doesn't love a wall,
there's nothing but a voice-like left inside
But Something Has To Her Pleasure Will Not
nor yet did i,
what was it it whispered? i knew not well myself;
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
her pleasure will not let me stay,
living, they gave him back to her alive
but something has to be left to god,
whose office it is to bury
it hadn't found the place to blow;
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,
He Ought Of Right
he told me a little about himself,
he said it for himself, i see him there
"sh! not so loud, he'll hear you,"mary said,
and he could wait -we'd see to him tomorrow,
that seems to tell me how i ought to feel,
we know who when they come to town
i'll see to that if there is need, he ought of right
that water never did to land before,
to know that for destruction ice
there they have every means proper to do with,
He Consigned To Stay,
the youth is persuaded that he will be rather more than less himself
they tried to keep him clothed, but he paraded
i wasn't looking for him and he's changed,
saying, and she could have him, and before
he consigned to the moon, such as she was,
he viewed them quizzically with jerks of head,
he takes up life simply with the small tasks,
was setting out, up track and down, not plants
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges
what matter if we go clear to the west,
for the shocks and changes we need to keep us sane,
that now it means to stay,
trying, i thought, to set it up on end,
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,
Left No Trace But Stars And Weary,
with none among them that ever sings,
further o�erhead than all but stars and angels,�
and left no trace but the cellar walls,
and where they sought without the sword
and weary, sought at noon with him the shade;
and set herself back where she, started from,
as she flings over and off down through the maples,
the white clouds over them on,
the sound was behind me instead of before,
You Could Himself Believe
he must seek me would he undo the wrong,
what good is he? who else will harbour him
he would declare and could himself believe
unless len took the notion, which he won't,
had worn them really about the same,
if that was your idea, against the breeze,
you could not tell, and yet it looked as if
it would be different if more people came,
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
I Trusted The Cones Under His Pines, I
and vexes me for reason why,
and eat the cones under his pines, i tell him,
i trusted the brook barrier, but feared
i have wished a bird would fly away,
i have my fancies, it runs in the family,
of the great harvest i myself desired,
the difficulty of seeing what stood still,
but on the memory of one absent most,
to white rest, and a place of rest
But Did Not Enough, A Good Helve
i remember that i did,
i wonder about the trees,
the plum, i suppose,
i expect, though, everyone's heard of it,
bearing it crushed and mystified,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
in the unloading, silas does that well,
but did not enter, though the wish was strong,
it was too lonely for her there,
and he likes having thought of it so well
he showed me that the lines of a good helve
so was i once myself a swinger of birches,
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,
