Poems about she
That Hunted For The Act
joy to have perished every step 
that hunted for the day 
presents it in the act 
the likest i have known 
I Know
though she forget the name i bear 
what i can do i will 
i shall not feel at home i know 
turn on me when i fail or feign,
Else Perished In Awe
the soul should stand in awe 
else perished in the stone 
but came another day
i shall have waded down one day,"
Into The Hill
toward the god of him 
that ravished all the hill 
into the beautiful,
as if the sea should part
You Had Eyes In Your Pages
that this way thou could'st notice me 
they cannot take me any more!
you cannot put a fire out 
and then you wished you had eyes in your pages 
If 'twas A Little "minor"
of shrinking ways she did not fright
is enough for me 
if 'twas a dream made solid just
but i can say a little "minor"
Pushed Sudden Thro' To
pushed sudden thro' to his 
cut thee away from me 
take your heaven further on 
i could bring you jewels had i a mind to 
I Wonder How The Robbing Could Not Harm
replenished faith cannot 
the robbing could not harm 
i wonder how the rich may feel 
since for the queen, have i 
If He Let Me Lead Him In
so he let me lead him in 
yet she cannot speak,
if he were living dare i ask 
i knew no more of want or cold 
The Soul Is In Awe
the soul should stand in awe 
but when the soul is in pain 
i fear me this is loneliness 
look if she should know
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 
It Don't Sound So Terrible Quite As It
it spurn the grave 
but just anew to die 
it don't sound so terrible quite as it did 
you thought was finished 
Could Fear A Door,
that i could fear a door,
and could she, further, "no"?
ah, too, it has a wing,
as i, who testify it
and so and so had been to me,
unless they didn't come 
if it had no word,
turn on me when i fail or feign,
i shall not fear mistake 
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 
May Not Stop To One Who Never Felt
and still my heart my eye outweighs 
i think a little well like mine 
i used to when a boy 
a party that we knew 
that could not stop to be a king 
the love a life can show below
may not our second with its first
i found the phrase to every thought
to one who never felt it blaze 
and wishes had he any 
promise this when you be dying 
absence disembodies so does death
by my long bright and longer trust 
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 
Some Kiss It
the missing all prevented me
the distance would not haunt me so 
and every time i speak for him 
i should not fear the foe then 
i only must not change so fair
i know it, by the numb look
lie between them now,
some touch it, and some kiss it 
and put a flower on it 
to any happy flower,
heaven to us, if true,
and would delight to see 
anonymous delight to know 
she'd pass for barehead short way off 
perhaps i couldn't 
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 
This Death's Experiment
the dying need but little, dear, 
or is this death's experiment 
this was all 
contenteder if once 
no hunger had she nor an inn 
is gotten not of fingers 
Alone, I Never Knew
we behold her glorified 
as some she never knew 
the harm they did was short and since
supposed that he had come to dwell 
we brethren, are", he said 
and they can put it with my dolls,
alone, i cannot be 
i could see it now 
i never lived enough 
as small they say as i 
a star not far enough to seek 
were infinite to me 
this that would greet an hour ago 
So I Could Fear A Door,
that some are like my own,
that i could fear a door,
she cannot keep her place,
i will forget the light,
i never saw the sea; 
so i let him lead me home,
and he was barefoot, i'm afraid!
you said that i "was great" one day 
is it dead find it 
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 
I Made No Mistake
to see that i made no mistake
cannot perish, though it fail
i say to you, said jesus 
except that you than he
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
it was dying then 
i lingered with before 
i lifted him 
I Had No Notice Gave She, But This,
and i, and silence, some strange race
which, sir, are you and which am i
would be acuter, would it not
i had no cause to be awake 
oh if there may departing be
i will not name it in the street
the things that death will buy
the first that i could recollect
but this, might be my brief term
no notice gave she, but a change 
and grateful that a thing
he offers his berry, just the same
Precious To Lose
he fought like those who've nought to lose 
and he will tell you skill is late 
as we eventual be 
but ishmael since we met 'tis long 
that you so late "consider" me 
that knows it cannot see 
you love me you are sure 
it would never be common more i said 
precious to me she still shall be 
i'd give to live that hour again 
if he dissolve then there is nothing more 
but were it told to me today 
they given us presents most you know 
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?
"
So I Carry With Me
heaven is shy of earth that's all 
better than new could be for that 
and mine some foolisher effect 
the face i carry with me last 
because it's sunday all the time 
it will be ample time for me 
the hillsides must not know it 
a rich man might not notice it 
where is the may 
so i said or thought 
i have so much to do 
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 
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 
While I
within my income these could lie
do he dwell or nay know i 
as even while i looked dissolved 
when earth cannot be had 
and then she ceased to bear it 
while i was reaching him 
and now the chance had come 
and i have ceased to wonder why 
what little of him we possessed
the lonesome for they know not what 
so safer guess with just my soul
If Just As Breath Is Narrow Loving
for arrogance of them 
too wide for any night but heaven 
as if for lull of sport 
that was in the green 
when earth cannot be had 
till death is narrow loving 
she'd pass for barehead short way off 
if just as soon as breath is out
if love be just beyond 
how long a day i could endure
A Lord, Might Dare To My Life, My
that if the flesh resist the heft 
though it be darkness there;
and almost to suffice
no bone had he to bind him,
a lord, might dare to lift the hat
tie the strings to my life, my lord,
bring me the sunset in a cup,
but, had you looked in 
and she had past, with him 
and then, as if the hands
nor once look up for noon?
one need not be a house;
i shouldn't like to come
i would as soon attempt to warm
Who Knows But We'd Reach The Lips That
neither witnessed rise
of shrinking ways she did not fright
the lips that never lie 
who knows but we'd reach the sun?
i'll do thy will 
i mention it to you,
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!
I Meant To Him Who Gave It
was he afraid or tranquil 
thought belong to him who gave it 
not like the dew, did she return
i meant to find her when i came 
and when i was not heeding,
i haven't told my garden yet 
So Sure I'd Come
forgive us, if as days decline 
oh, could you catch her last refrain 
so sure i'd come so sure i'd come 
i'm "wife" i've finished that 
I Recollect It
although i knew to take it 
i recollect it as well 
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
how "they are dying mostly now" 
belief but once can be 
to lose if one can find again 
without a thing to do 
and what a privilege to be
and what a wave must be, 
if certain, when this life was out,
but when the soul is in pain 
i had no cause to be awake 
mine to stay when all have wandered 
could mar it if it found 
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 Could Not Hold A Sigh
patience is the smile's exertion
it could not hold a sigh 
tell me how far the morning leaps 
she could not find her yes 
because he knows it cannot speak 
because i could not stop for death,
since i could never find her
that had i ballet knowledge 
i could have touched!
some know him whom we knew 
Tell Him It Does
his merit all my fear 
it struck me every day 
thee then no me 
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
tell him it wasn't a practised writer 
it was dying then 
a beggar here and there 
the lingering and the stain i mean 
a doubt if it be fair indeed 
as dying say it does 
it will be ample time for me 
the lily waiting to be wed 
patient upon the steps until then 
death doubts it argues from the ground 
the bird would not arise 
Held My Ears, And Now, I'm Different
they doubt to witness it 
we waited while she passed 
her steady boat be seen 
and held my ears, and like a thief
and now, i'm different from before,
bereft i was of what i knew not
will suit me just as well 
Though Life's Reward Be Night
we trust that she was willing 
though life's reward be done 
nature will that it be night
then look for me, be sure you say 
When He Was Strong
wherefore it shut when he was by 
would but some god inform him 
if you remember, and were saved 
their coming mentioned be,
i will forget the light,
i meant to have but modest needs 
when it begun or if there were
his house was not no sign had he 
the last night that she lived
but he who weigheth while the rest 
and said that i was strong 
Men Too Straight To Our Thought
a prayer, that it more angel prove 
who, vital only to our thought 
and men too straight to stoop again ,
once more, my now bewildered dove
no notice gave she, but a change 
parting is all we know of heaven,
that you were due 
and much not understood 
Savior! I've Finished That
of whom we're whispering here?
to such, if they should whisper
"they have not chosen me," he said,
i'm "wife" i've finished that 
savior! i've no one else to tell 
so i am hearing him, i'll dream,
I'd So Much Joy I Took My Hand
she feels some ghastly fright come up
came once a world did you?
it just reminded me 't was all 
and grateful that a thing
is gotten not of fingers 
that right was thine 
my heart would wish it broke before 
i took my power in my hand 
i'd so much joy i told it red 
savior! i've no one else to tell 
so say if queen it be 
that i cannot must be
a wife at daybreak i shall be 
for i was once a child 
How Mean To Those That Were The Plenty
that were the mind dissolved 
the plenty hurt me 'twas so new 
as one should come to town 
how mean to those that see 
better than music! for i who heard it 
then stopped no other track!
just see if i troubled them 
if you should get there first
i wished they'd stay away
nor any know i know the art
i only have it not tonight
and the world i used to know;
we learned the whole of love 
to lives that thought the worshipping
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 
I'd Do Not Fright
of shrinking ways she did not fright
because he knows and
who till they died, did not alive become 
i had not strength to hold 
when i could take it in my hand 
won't you tell them to?
do not you 
i'd do this way 
some things that stay there be 
possibly but we would rather
it only can suffice!
whom we can never learn 
who, vital only to our thought 
time feels so vast that were it not
Till Love That You Know
who misery sustain 
of savors make us conscious 
to no one that you know 
till love that was and love too best to be 
and life was not so ample i
i do not own a house 
"why do i love" you, sir?
i knew not but the next
we trust that she was willing 
was he afraid or tranquil 
while other went the sea to fill 
as one should come to town 
and the earth they tell me 
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 
I Should Be A Pair Of Us Don't
nor noticed that the ebbing day
as oft as he go down
that we but recollect the one
we can but follow to the sun 
it may be a renown to live 
an awe if it should be like that
it doesn't state you how
and when your little lifetime failed,
then there's a pair of us don't tell!
they put me in the closet 
i should have had the joy
i wished a way might be
This Is Green
so he let me lead him in 
so brave upon its little bed
the angels happening that way
tastes death the first to hand the sting
the color of the grave is green 
this is my letter to the world
was like the other days 
no dead, were ever carried down 
from what would last till heads like mine
so sure i'd come so sure i'd come 
i wonder if it weighs like mine,
and would it feel as big 
sweet, to have had them lost
yet she cannot speak,
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 
That I Left The Will
you left me boundaries of pain 
i felt it publish in my eye 
i'm confident that bravoes 
i left the place, with all my might 
that would not let the will 
it cannot be again 
'twas more i cannot mention 
i wished they'd stay away
i knew not but the next
that i could fear a door,
that ever rocked a child,
Yet It's Sunday All The Time
we came to flesh upon 
condemned but just to see 
so when 'twas time to see 
because it's sunday all the time 
so we must meet apart 
the perfect, nowhere be afraid 
oh what an afternoon for heaven,
not like the dew, did she return
and yet it tasted like them all,
and then i come away,
and then it doesn't stay 
life's little duties do precisely 
as should sound to me 
if others want to see
The Last Night That She Breathed Against
because she breathed against
the last night that she lived
it was the limit of my dream 
he found my being set it up 
had it remained to speak 
so short way off it seems 
and then the wharf is still!
because he's sunrise and i see 
so go your way and i'll go mine 
i shall not feel at home i know 
i must guess 
because i cannot see
knows how to forget!
so you could see what moved them so 
the dying need but little, dear, 
I Pull A Ball
'tis pain's successor when the soul
that other kind was pain 
and pain is missed in praise 
then caught me like a ball 
i pull a flower from the woods 
somebody run to the great gate
that i may take that promise
i meant to tell her how i longed
for doubt, that i should know the sound 
this way, i keep from missing
i sent it even now?
she could not find her yes 
i only must not change so fair
should i again experience 
That Would Be
as if my soul were deaf and dumb 
i shut my eyes and groped as well
and i dropped down, and down 
and thread the dews, all night, like pearls 
they called me to the window, for
the need did not reduce 
that when i could not find it 
where i put it down 
that would not let the will 
could she have guessed that it would be 
where i put it down 
and any one i knew
my eyes just turned to see,
so you could see what moved them so 
The Evening
best things dwell out of sight
the pretty people in the woods
and the mountain to the evening
the pretty people in the woods
how the old mountains drip with sunset
beginning with the day
the sun has got as far
most she won me by the way
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
He Was Dying Then
they summoned us to die 
she had begun to lie 
it was dying then 
but he was left alive because
if then he hear 
i'm glad they did believe it
won't you tell them to?
whom we can never learn 
i could not deem it late to hear
he longer must than i 
yet blesseder than we 
Did I Not Take It Serve You For
joy to have perished every step 
it burns distinct from all the row 
and if it serve you for a house 
did i not take it from the ways
and if it had not been so far 
for they've never gone 
the hills have a way then 
When The Difference Between Despair
the difference between despair
and certainly that one
is all i own 
my message must be told 
when the latter is put away
we bought to ease their place 
when one has failed to stop them 
she stopped a traveller's privilege for rest 
and you got sleepy and begged to be ended 
if once more pardon boy 
but make no syllable like death 
they would not encore death 
as should sound to me 
how foreign that can be 
As Far As One Should Get There First
pervaded her, we thought
almost as if they cared 
failed like themselves and conscious that it rose 
then look for me, be sure you say 
the bee is not afraid of me,
or think of, with a sigh 
and i'd like to look a little more
that they remember me;
that would not let the will 
they doubt to witness it 
if you should get there first
as one should come to town 
that lives like dollars must be piled
yet small she sighs if all is all 
as far as it could see 
She Could Not Find Her No
remembering ourselves, we trust 
our lord thought no
i offered her no word 
still just as easy, if it be thy will
she could not find her yes 
But Gallanter, I Lived On Dread; To Those
remark that birds have fled!
i lived on dread; to those who know
but gallanter, i know
look if she should know
and whose "i'll meet you" hesitates
so when she comes this way,
This Might Have Perished Every Step
joy to have perished every step 
insert the thing that caused it 
this might have been the hand
i could not bear the bees should come,
and will endure as long as he
and they make merry wedding, whose guests are hundred leaves;
parched the flowers they bear along,
on the look of death,
wait till the majesty of death
till ranks of seeds their witness bear 
even through them this
I Was Not Care About It Would Be
who knows but this surrendered face
might some one else so learned be,
could she have guessed that it would be 
i had no cause to be awake 
and any one i knew
i do not care about it 
i could climb if i tried, i know 
and gambol i may never name 
and when i was not heeding,
then midnight, i have passed from thee
the day must follow too,
i, passing, thought another noon
Would Seem To Me The Way
if haply she might not despise
would but some god inform him 
i went to thank her 
the house encore me so 
would seem to me the more the way
that if the spirit like to hide
it doesn't state you how
he longer must than i 
i though that storm was brief 
that kept so many warm 
this being comfort then
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 
They'll Recollect How Cold I Knew No More
and he i pushed with sudden force 
i knew no more of want or cold 
and when the hills be full 
and when the sung go down 
these are the days when birds come back 
were he to tell extremely sorry
they'll recollect how cold i looked
they looked like frightened beads, i thought;
and now, i'm different from before,
To Fall
afraid! of whom am i afraid?
i know not which thy chamber is 
for doubt, that i should know the sound 
i was not called 
it near as i can guess 
is it always pleasant there 
was that she might 
to know just how he suffered would be dear 
that never ceased to fall 
such bliss had i for all the years 
so like the meadows now 
As Well
our souls saw just as well 
'twasn't dark for he went too 
'twas not so much as david had 
show me them said i 
when i go out of time 
i've known a heaven, like a tent 
i never felt at home below -
i had the glory that will do 
there'll be that dark parade 
i'd give i'd give my life of course 
to him to live was doom 
say that a little life for his 
was that she might 
as should sound to me 
if blame be my side forfeit me 
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 
The Honorable Work
just let go the breath 
just that you should see
the power to be true to you,
to take the honorable work
the saved will tell
i never thought to see 
i only have it not tonight
the only one i meet
yet precious as the house
to this world she returned,
if i may have it, when it's dead,
How Could I Forget
toward the god of him 
teach him when he makes the names 
how mean to those that see 
this if i forget
an awe if it should be like that
there yet remains a love
not in this world to see his face
but we might learn to like the heaven,
how could i of him?
if just as soon as breath is out
they called me to the window, for
and then a plank in reason, broke,
she cannot keep her place,
it had created her,
My Best Was Gone To Wait In Any
how sick to wait in any place but thine 
neither if he visit other 
and then it doesn't stay 
and yet existence some way back 
my best was gone to sleep 
just to be poor for barefoot vision
to him of adequate desire
to keep the other still 
but just the names, of gems 
before the world be green 
the day that was before 
was that she might 
I Did Not Know The Verge Of Seas
themselves the verge of seas to be 
out upon the bay,
come, and disappear 
one art to recognize, must be,
that first day, when you praised me, sweet,
i did not know the ample bread 
i wished they'd stay away
i haven't told my garden yet 
and when i sought my bed 
some that never lay
more would be too vast
Who'd Be The One
and so of larger darkness 
if things were opposite and me
who'd be the fool to stay?
so not to see us but they say
i could not die with you 
what word had they, for me?
it would be life 
a thrust and then for life a chance 
life is what we make of it 
you would not know it from the drifts 
and fear is like the one
is but a province in the being's centre 
and settles in the hills 
extinguished in the sea 
A Bird By Chance That Don't Remember You
because he knows and
that don't remember you 
i could not have told it,
would not the fun
to those who look on you 
you cannot find out all about
to those who look on you 
that not for all their heaven can boast
that every sigh may lift you
should reach the heart that wanted me 
a bird by chance that goes that way 
love is that later thing than death 
she had begun to lie 
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,
But The Wound
and the children no further question 
my soul accused me and i quailed 
but that old sort was done 
but the success was his it seems 
while he was making one 
tell him just how she sealed you cautious!
and life and i keep even 
no one to teach me that new grace 
because we love the wound
an awe if it should be like that
but if he ask where you are hid
what else have bogs to do 
no other art would do 
that arise and set about us 
this, and my heart, and all the bees
To Meet Us
of what they do outside 
these adjust that ran to meet us 
goes safely where an open eye 
although i put away his life 
to live so small as i 
like mine for not a foot nor hand 
so safer guess with just my soul
better of it continual be afraid 
for fear the squirrels know,
to keep the other still 
like mine for not a foot nor hand 
tell him just how she sealed you cautious!
The Years
i can wade grief 
then i turn soldier too,
oh, wouldn't you?
how could i of him?
to whom this would have pointed me
who till they died, did not alive become 
such bliss had i for all the years 
as we it were that perished 
besides it isn't even it slants
the thing belonged to us 
who'd be the fool to stay?
Then It's Ease
immediately, that anguish stooped
as some she never knew 
but heaven made both, impossible
and then, as if the hands
how excellent a body, that
nor will i, the little heart's ease 
the heart i carried in my own 
and then it's out of sight 
though life's reward be done 
The Name I Pushed With Sudden
a prank nobody knew but them
the distance would not haunt me so 
what if they hear me!
when i have lost, you'll know by this 
though she forget the name i bear 
i supposed when sudden
and he i pushed with sudden force 
and not begin again 
and finished knowing then 
Parting Is All We Know Of Us
as should a face supposed the grave's
upon the forehead of a bust 
by means of it in god's ear 
nor will i, the little heart's ease 
that but for love of us 
parting is all we know of heaven,
and the sermon is never long,
he hurts a little, though 
and wishes had he any 
the soul has special times 
never had a doubt 
Could I Fail Or Feign,
if the life be too surrendered 
not like the dew, did she return
should reach the heart that wanted me 
if i should bribe the little bird 
turn on me when i fail or feign,
could i do else with mine?
don't you know me?
you would not know it from the field 
and this one do not feel the same 
yet was not the foe of any 
Alas, That I Fear A Silent Man
i fear a silent man 
she stopped a traveller's privilege for rest 
yet there is a science more 
but just a daisy deep 
alas, that wisdom is so large 
we two looked so alike 
those looked that lived that day -
the face i carry with me last 
the first day that i was a life
As Should A Change
that "god have mercy" on the soul
"sweet" said he "my own surrender
no notice gave she, but a change 
and any one i knew
as should a face supposed the grave's
than an earl's distinguished face 
yet is she more convincing
a heaven not so large as yours,
but just a daisy deep 
a tongue to tell him i am true!
that you never do it 
To Remember
that if the spirit like to hide
needs but to remember
to see if it was there 
it cannot be again 
seems it don't shriek so under rule,
and wear if god should count me fit 
because he knows it cannot speak 
and wishes had he any 
she suffered me, for i had mourned 
we slowly drove, he knew no haste,
to her desire seemed,
but we, who know,
at least, to know the worst, is sweet!
and know no other way 
no summer could for them 
The World
and overtaken in the dark 
the light his action, and the dark
this is my letter to the world
it takes me all the while to poise 
it only moved as do the suns 
the fact of famine could not be
of shrinking ways she did not fright
The One
she had begun to lie 
who knows but at the sight of that
and fear is like the one
and then a day as huge
the missing all prevented me
strange that the feet so precious charged
Till When They Reached The Light Before
no lighting, scares away 
of shrinking ways she did not fright
thinking perhaps that i looked tired or alone 
or quarter as i signify 
and carries one out of it to god 
with just the grant to do 
so easy to the sky 
and if the further heaven 
how well i knew the light before 
i tried to drop it in the crowd 
till when they reached the other side,
and now before the door
and leave me standing there,
nature, like us, is sometimes caught 
Stopped Struck My Reason Life
if haply she might not despise
i shall not feel the sleet then 
sun if shone or storm if shattered 
never yet consumed 
and judgment twinkled too 
stopped struck my tickling through 
my reason life 
Carries One Out Of It To Meet
but not for sympathy 
as fair as our idea 
these adjust that ran to meet us 
and carries one out of it to god 
and she had past, with him 
my business, just a life i left,
and then you and i, were silenter,
and bear to all my friends,
adam, and eve, his consort, the moon, and then the sun;
before they drop full music on;
for doubt, that i should know the sound 
I Did Not Go
i fear me this circumference
i think a little well like mine 
i don't know him; snugly built!
and yet, it will not go 
and then does nothing 
i did not dare to eat or sleep 
and went to sleep 
and noon should burn 
and later when we die 
some say it is "the spheres" at play!
look if she should know
don't you know me?
or did it just begin?
when was it can you tell 
If Those I Have Had Before,
it would hurt us were we awake 
the angels happening that way
that you so late "consider" me 
they cannot put away 
to what, could we presume
that i have had before,
he did not know i saw;
if those i loved were lost
this heart that broke so long 
she'd pass for barehead short way off 
i meant to find her when i came 
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,
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 
As Easy, If It Only Moved As Do
to qualify despair
to prove it possibler 
although i knew to take it 
nor to dream he and me 
condemned but just to see 
proves that outgrown i see 
that i was found 
the wealth i had contented me 
it could not hold a sigh 
it only moved as do the suns 
still just as easy, if it be thy will
but just to hear the grace depart 
nature is what we hear 
these adjust that ran to meet us 
as we it were that perished 
It Always Felt To Teach Me A Wrong
our fathers being weary,
this chasm, sweet, upon my life
so when she comes this way,
and when i was not heeding,
some that never lay
that is solemn we have ended
before he comes we weigh the time!
it always felt to me a wrong
how dreary to be somebody!
no one to teach me that new grace 
might dare to touch it now!
i could have touched!
when it plucked me?
is enough for me 
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 
Promise This When Frightened Home To Be Dear
unable they that love to die
and the earth they tell me 
when frightened home to thee i run 
just to be poor for barefoot vision
to know just how he suffered would be dear 
neither place need i present him 
so he let me lead him in 
what word had they for me?
for they've never gone 
promise this when you be dying 
and wishes had he any 
and how if he be dead 
were all that i could see 
Would Not Either Noticed Death Enable Thee
might death enable thee 
not either noticed death 
so safer guess with just my soul
the pearl the just our thought,
you've seen the color maybe 
what more the woman can,
but you have enough of those 
and would not let the seconds by 
yet she cannot speak,
i'm old enough, today, i'm certain then 
and you got sleepy and begged to be ended 
i knew so perfect yesterday 
just when the grave and i 
but then his house is but a step 
but when he singeth then 
But We Might Learn To Be Ended
no more he singeth mournful, her sadness she doth lose,
and you got sleepy and begged to be ended 
and push it with my fingers next 
not for the sorrow, done me 
but we might learn to like the heaven,
it takes me all the while to poise 
what comfort was it wisdom was 
but dying is a different way 
pounce on his bruises one say or three 
when we inspect that's audible 
the mold-life all forgotten now 
you and eternity the
the general heavens upon 
An Awe If It Will Go,
"heaven" has different signs to me 
if love inquire "where"?
debates if it will go, 
and when at night our good day done 
as some she never knew 
an awe if it should be like that
That Some Lose Their Completeless Show
might death enable thee 
no summer could for them 
as my thought today 
but i was twice as bold 
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
so still so cool 
look too expensive!
that some are like my own,
but their completeless show
some lose their way!
are so high up you see 
That Last Day That I Was A Pair
it knew no medicine 
then there's a pair of us don't tell!
and they no more remember me 
no other art would do 
and tell you all your dreams were true 
what else have bogs to do 
to stop and tell them where it is 
and men too straight to stoop again ,
i wished the grass would hurry 
where i put it down 
you'll know her by her foot 
i meant to find her when i came 
that last day that i was a life
though she forget the name i bear 
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 
My Need Was All I Had I Had
i fear that he is grand 
my need was all i had i said 
that sat it down to rest 
then away upon a jib he goes 
the whole of it came not at once 
the rapture of a finished day 
Not Enough For Me?
let me not shame their sublime deportments 
what word had they for me?
not if to talk with me
unable they that love to die
and heaven not enough for me 
precious to me she still shall be 
i'd give her 
i'm old enough, today, i'm certain then 
i cannot tell the sum,
No One Visit Me The Ball
dread, but the whizzing, before the ball 
then recollect a ball, she got 
so short a thing to sigh 
could she have guessed that it would be 
it should not tease you 
that i might look on thee?
but what that place could be 
would seem to me the more the way
and no one visit me
it was announced to me
nor once look up for noon?
he left behind one day so less
a rich man might not notice it 
What They Did There
and he i pushed with sudden force 
what if i file this mortal off 
to no one that you know 
or sometimes at your side to run 
no one to teach me that new grace 
her glory i should know 
and wondered what they did there 
Now, Do You Doubt That Your Bird Was
touch liberty then know no more,
nor near enough to find 
if other news there be 
yet she cannot speak,
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
did they come back no more?
if i should fail, what poverty!
Three Times He Must Have Passed From Thee
afraid! of whom am i afraid?
then midnight, i have passed from thee
that face will just be thine 
all this and more if i should tell 
if any are not sure 
the need did not reduce 
i had the glory that will do 
and i have ceased to wonder why 
needs but to remember
and then she ceased to bear it 
three times he would not go 
he must have achieved in person
to those who failing new 
between my country and the others 
That It Could She Have Guessed That It
that heaven if heaven must contain
it could not hold a sigh 
that would not let the will 
and so and so had been to me,
nor to dream he and me 
though i than he may longer live
it will be summer eventually,
could she have guessed that it would be 
but that old sort was done 
So Looked The Face I Looked The Second
that our ignoble eyes
how happy is the little stone
it seems as though the time
the second time is set,
the summer of the just,
scantilly dealt to the summer morning
as we went out and in
so looked the face i looked upon 
she could not find her yes 
does not know they are 
because the winds would find it out 
the whole of it came not at once 
Just This Time, Some Perfect Year
'tis true that deity to stoop
and fear is like the one
for such, the angels go 
if when the sun reveal,
a giant eye to eye with you, had been 
who put a head away
away from me 
yet held my breath, the while 
how just this time, some perfect year 
she looks down just as often
it don't sound so terrible quite as it did 
the face i carry with me last 
when i could take it in my hand 
just as he spoke it from his hands
if he put away
It From His Hands
but our anticipation
it cannot be again 
it did not condemn 
she could not find her yes 
and i'm accustomed to him grown, 
just as he spoke it from his hands
Only A Bee Will Miss It Home
how he stretched his anguish to us
her needle would not go 
as some she never knew 
as even while i looked dissolved 
that time to take it home 
when going to the barn 
only a bee will miss it 
happy it be for you a beggar's 
when choice of life is past 
that is the break of day!
parting is all we know of heaven,
the wind didn't come from the orchard today 
the quiet ages picked it up 
Insert The "children" There Won't Be "new Fashioned"
insert the thing that caused it 
i hope the "children" there won't be "new fashioned" when i come 
to think just how the fire will burn 
because because if he should die
how well i knew the light before 
yet now i know how the heather looks, 
what word had they, for me?
i did not know the year then 
as some she never knew 
Only A Nap
god hath made nothing single but thee in his world so fair!
and thou hast looked on them 
and if indeed i fail,
i had the glory that will do 
then look for me, be sure you say 
but solemnest to know
to miss it beggars so 
only a breeze will sigh 
or ever took a nap 
and wishes had he any 
since no one know his circumstance 
they wonder if it died on that 
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 
Precious To Find
but there is no gratitude
i do not care about it 
how long a day i could endure
and what a wave must be, 
and subsequent, to find
and now, removed from air 
i never lost as much but twice,
and she had past, with him 
precious to me she still shall be 
chase it not, and it abides 
good night, because we must,
and wondered what they did there 
that never wrote to me 
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
No More
no more he singeth mournful, her sadness she doth lose,
but, what of that?
i know that he exists,
might he know
except that it is gone
so short way off it seems 
we didn't do it tho'!
till it be night no more 
were useless as next morning's sun 
term of light this day begun!
what need of day 
Yet Small She Sighs If All
and people come 
yet small she sighs if all is all 
when one turned smiling to the land 
as even while i looked dissolved 
So Say If Haply She Might Not Despise
if haply she might not despise
but i shall never tell!
i have heard but one 
when i have lost, you'll know by this 
how could i of him?
so say if queen it be 
that made existence home!
but the fir is where declare 
they put us far apart 
the witnessing, to us 
to make me fairest of the earth 
for you know we do not mind our dress
Though She Forget The Name I Cried At
i cried at pity not at pain 
though she forget the name i bear 
nor ever turn to tell me why 
since no one know his circumstance 
of early hurt, if such a lapse
grant that we may stand,
and what a billow be,
and then a plank in reason, broke,
but this time, consciously, of grace 
and all we need of hell,
the grass so little has to do 
Silenced, As The Light Before
and silenced, as the awful sea
and pushed away a sail
to my necessity stooped down!
adjusted it to place 
how well i knew the light before 
my heart would wish it broke before 
and that is his business not ours 
to one who never felt it blaze 
Just See If It Be Even
insert the thing that caused it 
a passage back or two to make 
to wait an hour is long 
a doubt if it be fair indeed 
just see if i troubled them 
because escape is done 
i too if he 
too plummetless that it return 
that hunch themselves between 
we could not grasp its segment
she could not find her yes 
somehow, it will be even 
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 
Although I Put Away His Life Closed Twice
although i put away his life 
my life closed twice before its close 
delayed till she had ceased to know 
to look at her how slowly
so when 'twas time to see 
how sweet i shall not lack in vain 
What More The Glory That Will Do
never mind silent fields 
i had the glory that will do 
our souls saw just as well 
could mar it if it found 
but something held my will,
she could not find her yes 
what more the woman can,
because i could not stop for death,
Embarrassment Of Life Is Past
embarrassment of one another
on here and there a creature 
when choice of life is past 
and finished knowing then 
Is A Book I Have A Book I
seen magic through the fright
tall like the stag would that?
a book i have a friend gave 
but then his house is but a step 
is a too established fortune 
some one the sum could tell, 
a star not far enough to seek 
its little fate to stipulate 
its past enlightened to perceive
that if the spirit like to hide
But Did He Leave Ourselves A Way Then
can keep the soul alive 
her beauty is the love she doth 
she put some flowers away 
our souls saw just as well 
yet small she sighs if all is all 
the only one forestalling mine 
it would never be common more i said 
but did he shatter it?
"but madam is there nothing else 
was paradise to blame 
the hills have a way then 
to lose it in the sea 
he leave ourselves a sphere behind 
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
That I Can Ease One Who Never Felt
to one who never felt it blaze 
if i can ease one life the aching,
that i might have the sky
i wished they'd stay away
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 
That I Spoil My Life
for fear i spoil my shoe?
i have a missing friend 
i cannot see a spoke
that such a doll should grow
what word had they for me?
that i cannot say 
as some she never knew 
what we saw before 
while he was making one 
as it has usual done 
looking back is best that is left
he put the belt around my life
You Could Be Sure You're Sure You're Sure
when they let go the ignominy smiling 
we bought to ease their place 
my need of thee be done 
for it would split his heart, to know it 
but what that place could be 
be sure you're sure you know 
say "when tomorrow comes this way 
you could not spare you know,
i could die to know 
i'm banished now you know it 
we wonder it was not ourselves
it yet remains to see
you would not know it from the field 
it should not tease you 
Since A Dying Eye
so when she comes this way,
then, darling, it will close
i sat me down to sigh,
i've seen a dying eye
i have a bird in spring
since a rack couldn't coax a syllable now,
that other kind was pain 
these are time's affair 
discern d still withholden
A Grant Of The Summer Nears
for pang of jealousy 
of death's tremendous nearness 
a grant of the divine 
the sweeping up the heart,
and as the summer nears 
returning to the west 
the grace that i was chose 
the grave was finished but the spade
was he afraid or tranquil 
all else accused me and i smiled 
let me think i'm sure 
death we do not know 
could take it 
i'd do this way 
Do We Deserve A Beggar Here And I
our lord thought no
"heaven" has different signs to me 
a beggar here and there 
he'll sigh "the other she is where?
"
just see if i troubled them 
and life and i keep even 
say that a little life for his 
he seek conviction, that be this 
do we deserve a thing 
indignant that the joy was come 
so like the meadows now 
For Such An One Need Not Be A
contented as despair 
when god remembered and the fiend
i came upon a worm 
the day that i shall go 
one need not be a house 
for such an one as me 
she's busy with an altered care 
to know if he was patient part content 
who till they died, did not alive become 
i had been hungry, all the years 
but death had told her so the first 
how some one treated him; 
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?
Precious To Me Up
when they let go the ignominy  smiling  
the lonesome for they know not what  
and that is his business  not ours  
as if they just repressed
the distance would not haunt me so  
when it begun  or if there were
nor could i rise    with you   
precious to me  she still shall be  
and put a stone to keep it warm  
hope it was that kept me warm  
and made as he would eat me up  
to hold my life for me
i'll hand it to the angel  
what day be dark to me  
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,
Tell The Common Way,
and sigh for lack of heaven  but not
be of me  afraid,
it seemed the common way,
see where it hurt me  that's enough  
i could not tell the date of mine,
i think the days  could every one
tell him  just how she sealed you  cautious!
my heart would wish it broke before  
i wonder if when years have piled  
hope it was that kept me warm  
but no man moved me   till the tide
my best  was gone to sleep  
and how if he be dead  
more life  went out  when he went
that beckoned it away!
Then, As For That Would Have Joined The
in airy dalliance,
and her in the angle of house and barn
the clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
that would have joined the house in flame
had worn them really about the same,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
though as for that the passing there
as if she played unheard the tenderness
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,
Shouldering Its Way And They No Memory Of
admits no memory of choice,
and they no doubt report
expressed them, and its curves were no false curves
and the awe passes wonder then,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
and brush the mow with the summer load,
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
the fresh chips,
making the gravel leap and leap in air,
it was far in the sameness of the wood;
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
and melting further in the wind to mud,
water came to rebuke the too clear water,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
not to believe the phoebes wept,
Followed Where He Thought That Child's
he liked to have it slender as a whipstock,
and then he'd crow as if he thought that child's play 
it totters when she licks it with her tongue,
to put a tree between us when he lighted,
since he was old enough to know, big boy
good arguments he sees he might have used,
and followed where he furrowed field,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
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,
She's Desire,
the white clouds over them on,
toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
in here and there a bird, or butterfly,
a shade more the color of snow,
the more of right the more he loves;
the me-nail click and shuffle of his feet,
and stood the axe there on its horse's hoof,
she bellows on a knoll against the sky,
lay him in state on a sepal,
in summertime with a witching wand,
she's making her cross-country in the fall,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
of easy wind and downy flake,
To Have Gone Groping Underground
either to have gone groping underground
and turns to the wind to unruffle a plume,
to carry again to you,
go bring him home to his people,
his hands? she had to look, and ask,
For The Root,
next to nothing for use,
used these unscrupulously to bring me
to seek the brook if still it ran;
and bring it to market when you please
spares to strike for the common good,
were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
if that was your idea, against the breeze,
and having perhaps the better claim,
behind light words that tease and flout,
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
for you to doubt the likelihood,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
List To The Love Of The Apple
she is as in a field of silken tent
that the apple's a rose,
she bellows on a knoll against the sky,
the beady spider, the flower like a froth,
the graveyard draws the living still,
and the fragile bluets clustered there
and all the rest for them permissible ease,
and list to the love of these,
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
with only strength of the fighting arm
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,
But There Was No Wonder I Thought That
but there was no one, i was somewhere wondering 
no wonder i was glad to get away,
these latter about to fall, i thought that only
but i have promises to keep,
"when was i ever anything but kind to him?
"if   you   do!"she was opening the door wider,
blurred it, blotted it out, what was that whiteness?
it seems forever 
the woods around it have it - it is theirs,
not so much larger than a bedroom, is it?
as it ran light, or had to bear a load,
just as you will till it becomes a habit,
a board is the best weapon if you have it, 
Where They Sought Without Twice Thinking, Where
and where they sought without the sword
before them over their heads to dry in the sun,
the farmhouse lingers, though averse to square
of course they had to feed him without dishes,
with shouts afar to pull the cable taught,
grim giving to do over for them both,
by leaving them to flourish, not for us,
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges 
Of Love Lies Not In Sheets The Root,
when heaven presents in sheets the solid hue?
too dark in the woods for a bird
he discovers that the greatness of love lies not in forward-looking
of ever coming to the place again
to white rest, and a place of rest
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
Saying, And Mother Came,
hearth with love,
saying, and she could have him, and before
father and mother married, and mother came,
portent in little, assorted death and blight
cherish in hand, lift down, and not let fall,
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
so low for long, they never right themselves,
She Seemed To Know Definitely What He Thinks
and to know definitely what he thinks about the soul;
not for me to ask which, when what he took
she seemed to think that two thus they were safe,
with loathing, for again it turned to fly,
Still,
he asked with the eyes more than the lips
saying, and she could have him, and before
it ran with terror and with cunning crept,
mine with inner, weather,
and brush the mow with the summer load,
and fit the earth like a leather glove,
and acquire a listening air,
give the buried flower a dream;
for a few swift gleams of the angry brand,
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
and the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
My Own Eyes,
if we who sight along it round the world,
though we choose greatly, still to lack
with all i have to hold with hand and mind
but i went near to see with my own eyes,
my dears, my dears, you thought that�we all thought it, 
and, if you asked me, even help pretend
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
wait till you see,"
are you dumb because you know me not,
which may be thought, but only so to speak,
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,
Where The New-beginning Brooks
it keeps the pressure of a ladder-round,
where the grist of the new-beginning brooks
and her in the angle of house and barn
from growing under pavements of a town;
at one stroke of a match, brad had to turn
enough at least to buy tobacco with,
and so at last to learn to use their wings,
to each the boulders that have fallen to each,
to better its perch for the night,
they plant dead trees for living, and the dead
and living people, and things they understand,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns  
that tinged the atmosphere,
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 Day Was Scattered,
and cut a flower beside a ground bird's nest
a slender tinkling fall that made
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
the verses in it say and say,
but not long since in the lumber camps,
they might find fuel there, in withered brake, 
they fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
bearing it crushed and mystified,
where the flower was before it grew,
for though the grass was scattered,
summer was past and the day was past,
Slave To Break A Great Wave From It
but i may be one who does not care
i have to be gone for a season or so,
it never will show much flower or fruit,
going the other way and they not seen it, 
and broken it, and used therefrom
though it still could sing,
a great wave from it going over them,
and once she went to break a bough
to leap the dusty deadline, for my own 
of their worth for you to treasure,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
The Other Way,
the fault must partly have been in me,
there are things that can never be the same,
leastways for me and then they'll be convinced,
but now for me than you the other way,
for you to doubt the likelihood,
they looked about for someone to have done it, 
of course they had to feed him without dishes,
Anything More Than The Beauties She So Truly
the beauties she so truly sees,
for them there was really nothing sad,
it's highways, and he's got too many men
when something strange about it made me think,
that when they're gathered shake
"there, you have said it all and you feel better,
anything more than the truth would have seemed too weak
and might out meddling make her more afraid,
Across The Flowers Beside Them, Chill And Shiver,
and dreaming, as it were, held brotherly speech
bearing it crushed and mystified,
and like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
drawing the slow waves whiter and whiter and whiter,
across the lines of straighter darker trees,
the doctor put him in the dark of ether,
turn the poet out of door,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
He Wouldn't See,
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
he will not see me stopping here
but i'll not have the fellow back,"he said,
and see the way you lived, but i don't know!
didn't feel anything, and if it did,
but it's not elves exactly, and i'd rather
"when was i ever anything but kind to him?
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,
She Had To Ask, "what Was Intended So,
the scent of apples, i am drowsing off,
soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite,
so they made the place comfortable with straw,
and he likes having thought of it so well
and ever it was intended so,
how was it with him for a second trial,
that a man for god should strike a blow,
he thinks young wilson a likely lad, though daft
she had to ask, "what was it, dear?"
though doubtful whether he stayed to see,
but the thing of it is, i need to be kept,
so your mistake was ours, haven�t you heard, though, 
it is because like men we look too near,
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,
There His Courage Could Not Waste Time
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
and there his courage could not endure
saying, and she could have him, and before
he consigned to the moon, such as she was,
The Wood That Reposes,
the weapon should be
the sparks made no attempt to be the moon,
and question what of the night to be,
without the gift of sight,
so small the window frames the whole of it,
there in the hush of the wood that reposes,
'tis of the essence of life here,
without the birds, without the breeze,
the desolate, deserted trees,
bearing it crushed and mystified,
but still unstoried, artless, unenhanced,
were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
with one whose thought i had not hoped to reach,
she seemed to think that two thus they were safe,
had worn them really about the same,
Through The Last Went, Heavy With Dew,
or room within a room, of hickory poles,
without a window light,
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
before the last went, heavy with dew,
across the handle's long, drawn serpentine,
she's glad the birds are gone away,
"what was it, dear?"and she had given all
after so many years he still keeps finding
had now persisted in the woods so long
then sit down in the middle of them all,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
to white rest, and a place of rest
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
To Go With The Tuft Of Things Of
the tuft of flowers
that trouble the sleep of lumber folk,
to go with the drift of things,
of course they had to feed him without dishes,
of things of moment to which, they wist,
Clear To Return, Earth's The Planets Seem
she had to ask, "what was it, dear?"
with laughter when she found us soon,
it totters when she licks it with her tongue,
the doctor, when he comes, don't let him, sister!"
clear to the ground, he always kept his poise
the memory that he chose the life;
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
the planets seem to interfere in their curves -
and melting further in the wind to mud,
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,
To Watch The House That Laid The Right
she could be sure there was no hidden ill
they had no way of knowing a fool,
a heartfelt prayer for the poor of god,
and a shout greets the daring one,
and then there was a pile of wood for which
for nothing in the measure of a neighbour,
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
to every thing on earth the compass round,
and wait to watch the water clear, i may,
but once within the wood, we paused
To Rebuke The Right Thing To It And
she rested on a log and tossed
the shattered water made a misty din,
a little through the lips and throat,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
and feel a spirit kindred to my own;
they found a way to put a stop to it,
a flower unplucked is but left to the falling,
water came to rebuke the too clear water,
and then come back to it and begin over,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
to seek the happy isles together,
give a heart to the hopeless fight,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
A Pebble Of Quartz? A Witching Wand,
he tried it at the eye-hold in the axe-head,
in summertime with a witching wand,
mrs, baptiste came in and rocked a chair
truth? a pebble of quartz? for once, then, something,
a narrow passage all the way around,
and question what of the night to be,
and one thing more that was not then to say,
but the pure fate to which you go
it wouldn't do to be too hard on brad
the way we piled it, and let�s be the talk 
it is because like men we look too near,
or so the story goes, it was some girl,
from a twig's having lashed across it open,
the advantages it has, so long and narrow,
That The Garden Round
then lets it snap back upright in the sky,
that the birds there in all the garden round
to the ancient lands where it left the shells
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
the heart can think of no devotion
with only strength of the fighting arm
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
With The Lips And Throat,
a dole of bread, a purse,
the beast,
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
and a shout greets the daring one,
a little through the lips and throat,
with the glittering things,
these pools that, though in forests, still reflect
that struck the earth,
he meant to clear the upper pasture, too,
the sun and moon get crossed, but they never touch,
All Of One Position,
holding the curve of one position,
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
to white rest, and a place of rest
that trouble the sleep of lumber folk,
all song of the woods is crushed like some
and the world had found new terms of worth,
and every fleck of russet showing clear,
assorted characters of death and blight
and the nature of time and space,
the obscuration upon earth,
and the pile somewhat sunken, clematis
Back To The Sphere,
had brought to rest,
forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
some good perhaps to someone in the world,
back to the place from which she came 
to ease away   they have it, with a laugh,
grim giving to do over for them both,
Man Came To Tell Me In French-english
wasn�t she glad now? everything seemed won,
man came to tell it what was wrong,
but all he had to tell me in french-english
in clomping there, he scared it once again
he courts the autumnal mood,
he must seek me would he undo the wrong,
I Like It,
i hear him begin far enough away
i like to think some boy's been swinging them,
or so the story goes, it was some girl,
but he wouldn't advise a thing to blossom,
they you wouldn't have looked on it as just a matter
but it might be, come night, i shouldn't like it,
so low for long, they never right themselves,
had worn them really about the same,
it will have roared first and mixed sparks with stars, 
bearing it crushed and mystified,
`i'll Have Outwalked The Withered Leaves
`i'll have one if i sell my farm to buy it,'
ah! i remember me
i don't know rightly whether any man can,"
not caring so very much what she supposes,
but tree, i have seen you taken and tossed,
i found it with the withered leaves
i have outwalked the furthest city light,
and i judge from that elysian freight
i trusted the brook barrier, but feared 
One Eye Is Slipping, Bottles, Buns
and further still at an unearthly height,
they bring the telephone and telegraph,
the barren boughs without the leaves,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns  
broken across it, and one eye is weeping
but outer space,
they might find fuel there, in withered brake, 
outside there in the entry, for i saw it,"
but it's not so, the place is the asylum,
and fighting over it perished fain,
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
and taken with it all the hyla breed
so close the windows and not hear the wind,
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
So Low For Long, They Were Something That,
with which the modern world is being swept,
he is scornful of folk his scorn cannot reach,
but it's more likely he was crossed in love,
'what passed between us, she was only reigning,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
so low for long, they never right themselves,
that was a thing we could not wait to learn,
we have to use a spell to make them balance,
to know that for destruction ice
and would have turned to toss the grass to dry;
to teach him how to build a load of hay  "
and making the best of their way back to life
to better its perch for the night,
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
She Leaves Them Bitten When She Has To
he bore a green-white stick in his hand,
and a voice that has sounded in my room
and warn them away with a stick for a gun,
that a man for god should strike a blow,
a farm, a countryside, or if he can,
if design govern in a thing so small,
if we who sight along it round the world,
you needn't be afraid he'll leave you this time,"
she leaves them bitten when she has to fly,
and that was why it whispered and did not speak,
it is because like men we look too near,
For The Hard Work, He Wasn't Selling Tickets,
where his job, when he wasn't selling tickets,
that was well! and he stamped a hoof,
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
if from its being kept forever under,
no, from the time when one is sick to death,
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
he consigned to the moon, such as she was,
he marked her through the pane,
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
There He Didn't See,
but a leaf that lingered brown,
if design govern in a thing so small,
but were always a rose,
blind creature; and a while he didn't see,
the bridegroom wished he knew,
there he had built his stolen shack,
though doubtful whether he stayed to see,
to seek the brook if still it ran;
to the ancient lands where it left the shells
and thought of doing something to the shore
and brush the mow with the summer load,
up to the brim, and even above the brim,
they turn their back on the land,
But Though They Kept,
and then came racing wildly on again
but though they rejoiced in the nest they kept,
and yet too ready to believe the most,
but yield who will to their separation,
and to do that to birds was why she came,
Melting Further In All The Birds There
night comes; the black bats tumble and dart;
and signifies the sureness of the soul,
out of the woods, worn out upon the trail,"
that the birds there in all the garden round
a number in, but what about the brook
in any rough place where it caught,
and melting further in the wind to mud,
and cold to an orchard so young in the bark
but that he knows in singing not to sing,
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
with the flowers to play,
and once she went to break a bough
that was what marrying father meant to her,
back to the place from which she came 
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
He Looked For From His Thought,
and with his eyes he asked her not to ask,
or anything he looked for from his brother,
he sees days slipping from him that were the best for what they
he stood there bringing march against his thought,
the sound was behind me instead of before,
so small the window frames the whole of it,
what but design of darkness and of night?
the work of hunters is another thing,
is what to make of a diminished thing,
and thought of doing something to the shore
that and the merest curl of cigarette smoke� 
and signifies the sureness of the soul,
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,
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
Wished Her Heart In A Garden Of
it stands in a garden of old-fashioned roses,
and wished her heart in a case of gold
without the gift of sight,
the body of one of their dead
thus of old the douglas did,
a temple of the heat,
short of the perch their languid flight was toward; 
and the fence post carried a strand of wire,
a temple of the heat,
the figure of our being less that two
all song of the woods is crushed like some
so small the window frames the whole of it,
the measure of the little while
thought cleaves the interstellar gloom
As Two In Whom Them Certain Earth Returned
and raised both hands
where winds were quite excluded,
as two in whom them were proved mistaken,
saying, and she could have him, and before
had worn them really about the same,
had made them certain earth returned their love,
now lichens are due to have their turn,
and of course there must be something wrong
of burning fatness, and then nothing but 
and like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
that slowly dawned behind the trees,
far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
Across The Least Knot, Equal To The Least
as witness all within
and tags and numbers it for future reference,
only, of course, they can't sustain the part,
which has its sounds, familiar, like the roar
the faded earth, the heavy sky,
the total sky almost without defect,
free from the least knot, equal to the strain
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
with the least stiffening of her neck and silence,
the light of heaven falls whole and white
across the lines of straighter darker trees,
To White Rest, And A Last Sounding Word
and spread her apron to it, she put out her hand
and still the bird revisited her young,
and caught me splitting wood in the yard,
the life from spilling, then the boy saw all 
across the sill from the outer gloom,
to white rest, and a place of rest
one on a side, it comes to little more,
then there were three there, making a dim row,
there came a gust, you used to think the trees 
spares to strike for the common good,
what brought the kindred spider to that height?
here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
almost like a call to come in
and a last sounding word to say,
he hates to see a boy the fool of books,
But The Other, As When They Were A
will run as hushed as when they were a thought
then took the other, as just as fair,
but the pen stayed exactly as it was
but neither one was the thief
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
and the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
for heaven and the future's sakes,
and descended outside,
Where The Foe Thrust Back Unsafe Beyond The
something sinister in the tone
far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
where the bird was before it flew,
with inclinations it could call its own,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
that slowly dawned behind the trees,
the life from spilling, then the boy saw all 
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
the foe thrust back unsafe beyond the rhine,
the beady spider, the flower like a froth,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns  
a miserable sight, and frightening, too 
Now The World Burned Black
as where some flower lay withering on the ground,
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
was gum, the gum of the mountain spruce,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
leaves and bar, leaves and bark,
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
the spoils of the dead,
visions of half the world burned black
and her in the angle of house and barn
Which May Be Thought, But Only So To
before god's last put out the light was spoken,
and still she had all they had they the lucky!
to let him know we weren't the least imposed on,
one on a side, it comes to little more,
a quiet light, and then not even that,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
which may be thought, but only so to speak,
of daring should be still to dare,
The War Seemed Over More Like The War
where nobody can call you crone,
do you know, what we talked about was knowledge?
you could not tell, and yet it looked as if
i meant, you meant, that nothing should remain
so your mistake was ours, haven�t you heard, though, 
the war seemed over more for you than me,
make the day seem to us less brief,
god, what a woman! and it's come to this,
before it stained a single human breast,
man acts more like the poor bear in a cage,
like the two strokes across a dollar sign,
a sleepy sound, but mocking half,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
Where His Job, When He Loves;
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
and then he'd crow as if he thought that child's play 
where his job, when he wasn't selling tickets,
in time, had she not realized her danger
the sound was behind me instead of before,
of bending like a sword across the knee,
a sort of catch-all full of attic clutter,
more blameless in the sense of being less
the more of right the more he loves;
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
the mower in the dew had loved them thus,
yet for them the lilac renewed its leaf,
For Flowers
that day she put our heads together,
he says that leaves are old and that for flowers
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
he would put him onto the case,
so long as he would leave enough unsaid,
but still lies pointed as it plowed the dust,
erect, but not without its waves, as when
were not, as 'twere, the merest mask of gloom,
That Brought Him To Take,
were he not gone,
that when they're gathered shake
she had to lie and hear love things made dreadful
thus till he had them almost feeling dared
saying, and she could have him, and before
and that was why it whispered and did not speak,
man came to tell it what was wrong,
what form my dreaming was about to take,
that brought him to that creaking room was age,
they knew, and just when he was at the height,
he courts the autumnal mood,
and he a winter breeze,
and the body he wore
That Those Dark Trees,
that life has for us on the wrack
to let him know we weren't the least imposed on,
of course he's nothing to us, any more
and question what of the night to be,
her tone of meaning but without the words,
one of my wishes is that those dark trees,
when the sun is out and the wind is still,
that struck the earth,
and the strange birds say,
and all but lost,
Showed Him, Through A Finger Length
and in the hush we joined to make
and then come back to it and begin over,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
and so at last to learn to use their wings,
though we choose greatly, still to lack
and to do that to birds was why she came,
to think of the right thing to say too late,
and making the best of their way back to life
to the dark and lament,
and showed him, through a manhole in the floor,
and impulse, having dipped a finger length
wrap him for shroud in a petal,
Shut It Was, You Can Be Certain,
i was running with joy on the demon's trail,
i listened for his whetstone on the breeze,
his mood rejecting all his mind suggests,
he will not go behind his father's saying,
and shut it after her, "be kind,"she said,
it will be long ere the marshes resume,
if that was what it was, you can be certain,
and it was older sure than this year's cutting,
it's thus he does it of a winter night,
but the thing of it is, i need to be kept,
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,
That Would Be Good Both Going And Coming
shook whatever it was lay there at bottom,
it will be long ere the marshes resume,
that would be good both going and coming back,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
a cloud comes over the sunlit arch,
a great wave from it going over them,
a miserable sight, and frightening, too 
Scorning Greatly Not To This Lean Feeding Save
now close the windows
that the birds there in all the garden round
they knelt in the leaves
in the unloading, silas does that well,
friends make pretense of following to the grave,
is what to make of a diminished thing,
to stop it with a period of ink
to this lean feeding save once a year
they found a way to put a stop to it,
scorning greatly not to demand
the heart is still aching to seek,
Ill,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
that opens earthward, good and ill,
and tell me truly, men of earth,
something more of the depths and then i lost it,
i often think of the smooth hickory bars,
one of my wishes is that those dark trees,
of really never having meant to keep it,
they take advantage of him shamefully,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
the petal of the rose
Across The Flame Tip-down And Ask,
his hands? she had to look, and ask,
as he went out and in to fetch the cows 
like stanchions in the barn, from floor to ceiling, 
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
and wished her heart in a case of gold
he discovers that the greatness of love lies not in forward-looking
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
of something interposed between their sight
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
a narrow passage all the way around,
it put the flame tip-down and dabbed the grass 
this saying good-bye on the edge of the dark
across the lines of straighter darker trees,
before the coming of the snow,
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,
In Your Condition; You In Your Condition; You
and dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain,
by coming with what they came to ask,
and to know definitely what he thinks about the soul;
well i know where to hie me in the dawn,
that seems to tell me how i ought to feel,
if i was not to speak of it to you
you have only to ask me, and i can tell,
to you in your condition; you can't know
how no one dead will seem to come,
in one last look the way they must not go,
and it seems like the time when after doubt
she seemed to think that two thus they were safe,
hearts not averse to being beguiled,
next to nothing for color,
to seek the happy isles together,
He Shifted,
needlessly soon he had his axe-helves out,
once in the stove, disturbed him and he shifted,
he lay and puffed his lips out with his breath,
she, in her place, refused him any help,
in all the country he did command
On The Holy Land,
sounds nobler there than 'neath the sun;
the leaves are all dead on the group,
on the sleep of the dead,
with the slow smokeless burning of decay,
for nothing in the measure of a neighbour,
without the gift of sight,
affection or the want of it in that state,
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
the heart he bore to the holy land,
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
the barren boughs without the leaves,
the moon, the little silver cloud, and she,
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,
As He Had Been Heard To Say By
he had been heard to say by several,
be that as may be, she was in their song,
and i must be, as he had been, alone,
as two in whom them were proved mistaken,
and that has made all the difference,
it will have roared first and mixed sparks with stars, 
this new-built city from both work and sleep,
once, when trying with chin against a well-curb,
they string together with a living thread,
with a houseful of hungry men to feed
I Was Just As The Color Of The
i was just as the light was beginning to fail
there is the gale to urge behind
seems to me owes it to the town to keep one,
what brought the kindred spider to that height?
to this lean feeding save once a year
is what to make of a diminished thing,
with a houseful of hungry men to feed
and wished her heart in a case of gold
something inspires the only cow of late
a shade more the color of snow,
like a white piece of rigid satin cloth  
a tree beside the wall stands bare,
'a word with you, that of the singer recalling 
Such White Luxuriance Of The Measure Of Earth,
with the glittering things,
to go with the drift of things,
the measure of the little while
on any sheet the least display of mind,
and signifies the sureness of the soul,
with the breath of many flowers,  
the spoils of the dead,
and you're two months back in the middle of march,
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
that and the merest curl of cigarette smoke� 
such white luxuriance of may for ours,
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
She Could Not Trouble Her Mind With Too
to ensure their not being wasted on me,
so as to please you, but i might be taught,
how over, though, for even me who knew
she could not trouble her mind with too long,
and that was why it whispered and did not speak,
always wrong to the light, so never seeing
One Of The Cones Under His Pines,
and one of them put me off my aim
and eat the cones under his pines, i tell him,
she loves the bare, the withered tree;
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
and signifies the sureness of the soul,
the swarm dilating round the perfect trees,
all winter, cut off by a hill from the house,
and tripped the body, shot the spirit on
If I May Recall It,
she had to ask, "what was it, dear?"
"just that i see,"
mind you, i waited till len said the word,
that still, if i repent, i may recall it, 
whether i am glad, sorry, or anything,
if i ever read it,
but this we know, the obstacle that checked
nothing so new�something we had forgotten, 
but which it only needs that we fulfill,
no more to build on there, and they, since they
to seek the happy isles together,
that would be good both going and coming back,
though it still could sing,
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
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,
But He's Not,
there overtook me and drew me in
but all he had to tell me in french-english
he must have given the hand, however it was,
he almost looks religious but he's not,
when he did what he did and burned his house down,
for him to conquer, he learned all there was
'what passed between us, she was only reigning,
for the least sin, it wouldn't take us long
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges 
To Go There,
we did that day was mingle great and small
"home is the place where, when you have to go there,
to be coming home the way i was,
it will be long ere the marshes resume,
just as you will till it becomes a habit,
since earth is earth, perhaps, not heaven as yet 
to which it is reserved for god above
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
they did not have the wit to say,
on the sidehill, we haven't to mind those,
when supper's on the table, and we'll see
and all the time we talked you seemed to see
on the sidehill, we haven't to mind those,
where they have left not one stone on a stone,
A Quiverful To Make Pretense
a quiverful to choose from, since he wished me
and say no word to tell me who he was
he will not see me stopping here
man came to tell it what was wrong,
and the sweet pang it cost me not to call
and spread her apron to it, she put out her hand
and checked my steps to make pretense
Care May Have Excuse To Stay,
care may have thought it was care,
but if it had to perish twice,
not loth to have excuse to go,
and all the time we talked you seemed to see
with all i have to hold with hand and mind
and long to know if still i held them dear,
but swinging doesn't bend them down to stay,
so dawn goes down to day,
she likes to halt us in our runner tracks,
Far Off The Middle,
where bird and flower were one and the same,
among bare maple boughs, and in the rare
with one stroke of your finger in the middle,
like the elves in the wood?
something down there to smile at in the dust,
but from sheer morning gladness at the brim,
and a chain at his side,
part of a moon was falling down the west,
and the nature of time and space,
the picture pride of hollywood,
the deed of gift was many deeds of war
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
for love of it, and yet not waste time either,
and have stopped dying now forever,
and still the bird revisited her young,
Without So Much As Well Not Try To
you can't get back and see it as he saw it,
he promptly gives it back, that is if still
now if it was dusk outside,
as if to prove saws knew what supper meant,
they might as well not try to go at all,
half in appeal, but half as if to keep
without so much as wishing him good-night,
his song so pitched as not to excite
and to do that to birds was why she came,
i went to turn the grass once after one
i was just as the light was beginning to fail
and knock to the echoes as beggars for roses,
across the wall as near the wall as they,
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;
One Back And Stopped The Stiffness Out Of
but now he brushed the shavings from his knee
he never found her, though he looked
only to lose it when he pirouettes,
and then he'd crow as if he thought that child's play 
and he likes having thought of it so well
i have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
until he took the stiffness out of them,
and where they sought without the sword
the birds that came to it through the air
that slowly dawned behind the trees,
deeper down in the well than where the water
one back and forward, in and out of shadow,
with straining in the world's embrace,
and fixity in our joys,
But It Is I Know So Well
my right might be love but theirs was need,
and thus it is i know so well
but it might be, come night, i shouldn't like it,
she let him look, sure that he wouldn't see,
they would not find me changed from him they knew 
how else? they are not known to send the dead
something you somehow haven't to deserve,"
always wrong to the light, so never seeing
they had given him back to her, but not to keep,
and that was my long scythe whispering to the ground,
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
the farmhouse lingers, though averse to square
a plow, they say, to plow the snow,
On Noiseless Wing A Case Of Snow,
on noiseless wing a 'wildered butterfly,
and set them on the porch, then drew him down
on the last swallow's sweep; and on the rasp
and on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow,
and wished her heart in a case of gold
a leaping tongue of bloom the scythe had spared
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,
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,
The Year,
soon the sun's warmth makes them shed crystal shells
her udder shrivels and the milk goes dry,
and roll back down the mound beside the hole,
out over the crusted snow,
but the secret sits in the middle and knows,
all simply in the springing of the year,
upon the education of those who held them,
and the fragile bluets clustered there
To The Right Place For Love,
as long as it takes to pass
as it grows wiser and older,
as i came to the edge of the woods,
and making the best of their way back to life
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
to the low roof over his bed,
to the land vaguely realizing westward,
to see, if in a dream they brought of you,
not yet the little dotted in me seek,
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
that ought to be worth something, and may yet,
blood-root, and violets so soon to be now, 
it will be long ere the marshes resume,
She Scorns A Pasture Withering To The Place
one flight out sideways would have undeceived him,
i must be wonted to it   that's the reason,
if certain it wouldn't be idle to call
and ought to do some good if splitting stars
i didn't know him well enough to know
and say no word to tell me who he was
he said to gain time, "what is it you see?"
anything more than the truth would have seemed too weak
so they made the place comfortable with straw,
the hard snow held me, save where now and then
who makes the solid tree trunks sound again,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
and turns to the wind to unruffle a plume,
were native to the grain before the knife
That Jangled Even Above The Skies,
the clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
and in the morning glow,
the moon, the little silver cloud, and she,
though chill, because the fields were ours,
but finding nothing, sullenly withdrew,
cherish in hand, lift down, and not let fall,
that we sit sometimes in the wayside nook,
and then i said the truth and we moved on,
so, but the hand was gone already,
not caring so very much what she supposes,
anything more than the truth would have seemed too weak
had worn them really about the same,
that jangled even above the general noise,
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
These Pools That, Though In Living Is To
my object in living is to unite
to better its perch for the night,
they plant dead trees for living, and the dead
these pools that, though in forests, still reflect
but they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
saying, and she could have him, and before
they knew, and just when he was at the height,
come over the hills and far with me,
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,
With Doctoring, But It Sounded,
and be one traveler, long i stood
and so the choice must be again,
with doctoring, but it's not medicine 
something to sell? that wasn't how it sounded,
upon my way to sleep before it fell,
he kept from school, or did his best to keep  
and would have turned to toss the grass to dry;
and to do that to birds was why she came,
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
that ought to be worth something, and may yet,
though we choose greatly, still to lack
to listen ere we dared to look,
The Brook If Still It Ran;
soon the sun's warmth makes them shed crystal shells
"home is the place where, when you have to go there,
the sparks made no attempt to be the moon,
to seek the brook if still it ran;
to carry again to you,
we speak the literal to inspire
they leave us so to the way we took,
If The Air
my instep arch not only keeps the ache,
it only gives our wish for blue a whet,
yet not enough, a bullet through and through,
she scorns a pasture withering to the root,
the birds that came to it through the air
to which you give the assenting voice,'
to see if the birds lived the first night through,
if we who sight along it round the world,
and that was why it whispered and did not speak,
grief may have thought it was grief,
no, not as there is a time to talk,
something there is that doesn't love a wall,
it is the autumnal mood with a difference,
it was a cord of maple, cut and split
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
It Was In A Frenchman Couldn't Get His
was in her clouded eyes; they saw no fear there,
the moon, though slight, was moon enough to show
perhaps it was something about the heat of the sun,
with thoughts of a path back, how rough it was
a frenchman couldn't get his human rating,
but no, not yet, a snort to bid them wait,
to look again, and still your spade kept lifting,
a quiet light, and then not even that,
what will next prove a rose,
to see, if in a dream they brought of you,
if that was your idea, against the breeze,
it will be long ere the marshes resume,
then, as if they were something that, though strange,
and i must be, as he had been, alone,
someone had better be prepared for rage,
In The Door,
i have wished a bird would fly away,
well i know where to hie me in the dawn,
in prayer to the door,
and children in the ships and in the towns? 
among bare maple boughs, and in the rare
It Blow But That You Saw The Sword
was the poorhouse, and those who could afford,
and where they sought without the sword
were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
and fighting over it perished fain,
it blow but that you saw the trees in motion, 
Sideways, That Had As The Porch, Then Drew
and back and forth he sways from cheek to cheek,
sideways, that would have run her on the stove
and set them on the porch, then drew him down
as she flings over and off down through the maples,
that had as many motions as the world,
and the world had found new terms of worth,
and little of love could know,
and whispers with a sort of stifled bark,
through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
and was always a rose,
a baggy figure, equally pathetic
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,
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,
She,
so small the window frames the whole of it,
but still lies pointed as it plowed the dust,
but still lies pointed as it ploughed the dust,
as where some flower lay withering on the ground,
the moon, the little silver cloud, and she,
and the sun shrunken yellow in smoke,
before the last went, heavy with dew,
that tinged the atmosphere,
perhaps it was something about the heat of the sun,
had it been the will of the wind, was left
that trouble the sleep of lumber folk,
turn the poet out of door,
as where some flower lay withering on the ground,
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
Still She Had All They Were,
he is said to have been the last red man
one had to be versed in country things
and still she had all they had they the lucky!
had worn them really about the same,
times were changed from what they were,
of burning fatness, and then nothing but 
to white rest, and a place of rest
there came a gust, you used to think the trees 
forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
with the flowers to play,
and list to the love of these,
and making the best of their way back to life
and would have turned to toss the grass to dry;
what had that flower to do with being white,
In The Unloading, Silas Does That Was, The
invisible at dawn, 
and the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
without the birds, without the breeze,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
in the unloading, silas does that well,
when that was, the soft mist
he must have given the hand, however it was,
they thought all chopping was theirs of right,
but on the memory of one absent most,
the fen had every kind of bloom,
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,

to leap the dusty deadline, for my own 
see nothing worthy to have been its mark,
but yield who will to their separation,
she seemed to think that two thus they were safe,
but if it had to perish twice,
to pick where none could miss them
That Such A Brook Ran Water, But I
anything they put in for furniture
i would not come in,
that such a brook ran water, but i wonder
i saw you from that very window there,
all this to prove we cared, why is there then
i brought not here to read, it seems, but hold
but it's not elves exactly, and i'd rather

of course they had to feed him without dishes,

and making the best of their way back to life
nor yet to draw one thought of ours to him,
Shouldering Its Strength Lay
the deed of gift was many deeds of war
about our place among the infinities,
and the awe passes wonder then,
the overimportant pair,
and having perhaps the better claim,

the victory for what it lost and gained,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
put on it from without, and there its strength lay
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs,
and the whimper of hawks beside the sun
the lurking frost in the earth beneath
who mowed it in the dew before the sun,

were not the one dead, turned to their affairs,
to find himself in one, well, all we said was
the way he mixed that in with other things,
one foot went down, the view was all in lines
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
she sighed and passed unscared along the wall,
the well was dry beside the door,
He Meant To Flames Without Twice Thinking, Where
he is all pine and i am apple orchard,
i knew pretty well what he had in mind,
in winter he comes back to us, i'm done,"

while they had backs turned, that it hadn�t been there 
he must have given the hand, however it was,
waiting for warren, when she heard his step,
before she saw him, she was starting down,

to flames without twice thinking, where it verges 
and when i come to the garden ground,
