Poems about sir
Who Knows But At The Estimate
who knows but at the sight of that
this time beyond the estimate
the witnessing, to us 
you, sir, taught first to me,
If White A Foot Nor Hand
wrung me with anguish 
like mine for not a foot nor hand 
if white a red must be!
enters with a "you know me sir"?
A Child No More
the racket shamed me so 
i'm pleading at the "counter" sir 
i felt it publish in my eye 
another way to see 
a being impotent to end 
a doubt if it be fair indeed 
it may be wilderness without 
that frightened but an hour 
that certain as it comes 
but what must be the smile
so soon to be a child no more 
when i have lost, you'll know by this 
if you'll just tell me so 
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
Lest That Would Not Which, Desire, Or Grant
lest that should conquer me,
can go, itself, without a fan 
and what itself, will say to me 
i know not which, desire, or grant 
if town it have beyond itself 
when earth cannot be had 
the court is far away 
but the man within
they might as wise have lodged a bird
if any sink, assure that this, now standing 
that would not let the will 
to lose if one can find again 
i found the phrase to every thought
Put Out Her Desire Seemed,
to her desire seemed,
and put out her eye 
his own would fall so more
when it was dark enough to do
I Could I Could Not Rather Die,
than letting him surmise?
could i do else with mine?
they would not rather die,
'twas not my blame who sped too slow 
what shall i do it whimpers so 
i could not feel the anguish go 
i could not bear the bees should come,
i said "but just to be a bee"
enters with a "you know me sir"?
"oh lord how frail are we"!
when i shall be "forgiven" 
i'd give to live that hour again 
neither place need i present him 
the day that i shall go 
to forfeit thee?
 the very name
Be Done
"dissolve" says death the spirit "sir
that "god have mercy" on the soul
what once was "heaven"
i'll hand it to the angel 
the whole of it came not at once 
like that old measure in the boughs 
be the perfect one 
how sick to wait in any place but thine 
slow night that must be watched away 
broke perfect from the pod 
heaven is so far of the mind
and thought of them so fair invites 
though life's reward be done 
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 
You Doubt That Your Bird Was True?
why make it doubt it hurts it so 
it's thoughts and just one heart 
now, do you doubt that your bird was true?
you'll know sir when the savior's face
and then it's time to strike my tent 
he'll take it scan it step aside 
is it dead find it 
and if it had not been so far 
but were no one
if we were true 
but, had you looked in 
death is but one and comes but once
you would not know it from the drifts 
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 
See Thee Better In The Width Of Life
patience is the smile's exertion
the width of life before it spreads
to him of adequate desire
to ascertain the size 
that i could ascertain 
i would as soon attempt to warm
i could not see to see,
i see thee better in the dark 
what right have i to be a bride 
see where it hurt me that's enough 
because he knows it cannot speak 
but since it is playing kill us,
just lost, when i was saved!
but since myself assault me 
but please take a little girl 
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 Place, With All My Might
who misery sustain 
the sunrise sire compelleth me 
include us as they go 
and people come 
i left the place, with all my might 
that he'll mistake and ask for me
Remember As Despair
contented as despair 
remember as thou go 
i worshipped did not "pray" 
because i see new englandly 
you'll know sir when the savior's face
how many times it ache for me today confess 
we show them prayer 
but were it told to me today 
perhaps you're going too!
when we stop to die 
I Know Why When Time Is Tongueless Before
best grief is tongueless before he'll tell 
if you'll just tell me so 
i shall know why when time is over 
i know not which, desire, or grant 
because i could not stop for death,
and he would come again 
not that we did, shall be the test
For News That Was Not Wealth
the poverty that was not wealth 
to those who look on you 
you love the lord you cannot see 
you'll know sir when the savior's face
and see the people going by 
for news that they be saved 
was't glory?
 that will do 
that one, to be quite sure 
I Hung Upon The Same
and tell him charge thee speak it plain 
but tell him that it ceased to feel 
where it used to be 
i know not which, desire, or grant 
and this one do not feel the same 
what and if it be
because i cannot see
so satisfied to go
came out to look at me -
feeling as if their pillow heard,
i hung upon the peg, at night,
i pondered, may have judged,
i would not weep if i were they 
and the day that i despaired 
when was it can you tell 
For Mine To Look At When Night Is
i lived on dread; to those who know
and next i met her on a cloud 
for mine to look at when i liked 
because he's sunrise and i see 
although i knew to take it 
just as sure 
only me was still 
i have another trust" 
the only raiment i should need 
say may i have it sir?
three times he would not go 
when night is almost done 
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,
Such Doubts Of The Thought Of The Hush
there in the hush of the wood that reposes,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
such doubts of education should depend
all simply in the springing of the year,
in spite of a scorched fourth-of-july feeling, 
all simply in the springing of the year,
There In The Doctor Put Him With Ichor
of the great harvest i myself desired,
and the nature of time and space,
and heat so close in; but the thought of all 
the doctor put him in the dark of ether,
there in the hush of the wood that reposes,
all simply in the springing of the year,
the understanding of a friend,
embalm him with ichor of nettle,
and the mind whirls and the heart sings,
that struck the earth,
when that was, the soft mist
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
a flower to try its currents where they crossed,
and try to stack them in a better load,
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,
Somehow Must Be, As He Went Out And
by leaning back myself, as if the reins 
as he went out and in to fetch the cows 
was i desired in friendship, partly as some one
and i must be, as he had been, alone,
somehow must have gotten abroad,
the water for which we may have to look
there they have every means proper to do with,
that water never did to land before,
to yield with a grace to reason,
Sits In Tune,
run the rattling pages o'er;
and sits in sirius' disc all night,
and showed him, through a manhole in the floor,
in summertime with a witching wand,
the heart he wore in a golden chain
hung over her in tune,
like locks blown forward in the gleam of eyes,
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
He Takes It So Well
storm fear
he takes it out in bunches like big birds' nests,
and he likes having thought of it so well
so now and never any different,"
and i agree to that, or in so far
what i was walling in or walling out,
i enter alone upon the stubble field,
of the great harvest i myself desired,
something more of the depths and then i lost it,
Of The Shadow Of The Gaps I Myself
and setting sun to hyla brook, i gave it 
i shall have less to say,
to please the yelping dogs, the gaps i mean,
of the great harvest i myself desired,
beyond the shadow of a doubt;
Before The Hand!
neither refused the meeting, but the hand!
unsaid between us, brother, and this remained 
father and mother married, and mother came,
with those great careless wings,
and alter with age,
before the last went, heavy with dew,
with the least stiffening of her neck and silence,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
with the curves of his axe-helves and his having
or that showed with the lapse of time to vain
to the dark and lament,
forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
upon the road, to flames too, though in fear 
before them over their heads to dry in the sun,
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
