Poems about skill
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 
Three Times We Parted Breath And I Looked
nor to dream he and me 
of meeting them afraid 
thinking perhaps that i looked tired or alone 
three times we parted breath and i 
when skill entreated it the last 
but 'twas the fact that he was dead 
alas, that wisdom is so large 
What If The Face I Carry With Me
bereavement in their death to feel
as one who for a further life
that looks a harder skill to us 
what if the bird from journey far 
the face i carry with me last 
through it compete with death 
eternity is those 
but morn didn't want me now 
savior! i've no one else to tell 
would cost me just a life!
touch liberty then know no more,
but make no syllable like death 
a little road not made of man 
what need of day 
To Him, It Would Be If That Please
forgive us, if as days decline 
when one has failed to stop them 
the way i read a letter's this 
i, a less divine 
and i, bewildered, stand 
and he will tell you skill is late 
the world, will have its own to do 
not all the snows could make it white 
we learn to know the planks 
how they will tell the story 
then "great" it be if that please thee 
to him, it would be death 
Forever Of His Profound To Taste
afraid to trust the morn
of his profound to come 
without the fear to justify 
sometimes not often in eternity 
nature and some men 
that he loved men 
forever of his fate to taste 
skill to hold my brow like an earl 
and then to lay them quiet back 
was he afraid or tranquil 
he comes just so far toward the town 
When This World Sets Further Back
for fear i hear her say
would but some god inform him 
they put us far apart 
and when this world sets further back 
need once in an eternity 
that if the spirit like to hide
but when the news be ripe 
some touch it, and some kiss it 
the dying need but little, dear, 
a day when it was not,
when it begun or if there were
why heaven did not break away 
savior! i've no one else to tell 
i recollect it how still 
and he will tell you skill is late 
"if I Felt A Cleaving In My Mind
i felt a cleaving in my mind
i love thee then how well is that?
that looks a harder skill to us 
but what must be the smile
and yet, it will not go 
that looks a harder skill to us 
just looking round to see how far
i'd rather be the one
to see that i made no mistake
might he know
an awe if it should be like that
"if i should be a queen, tomorrow" 
'tis True That Deity To Do
'tis true that deity to stoop
entirely for thee 
'tis one by one the father counts 
a night there lay the days between 
before the world be green 
and when his golden walk is done 
if just as soon as breath is out
the grass so little has to do 
and he will tell you skill is late 
We Shall Not Want To Lead Him To
the soul cannot be rid 
this might have been the hand
i could bring you jewels had i a mind to 
will suit me just as well 
could give them any pause;
we shall not want to use again
to lead him to the well
for these were only put to death 
and mostly see not
and he will tell you skill is late 
and then the list is done 
Gave Even As Soon As Breath Is Out
that when their mortal name be numb 
that sense was breaking through 
if just as soon as breath is out
gave even as to all 
and he will tell you skill is late 
because he knows and
Not Mourn
for stranger strangers do not mourn 
a little road not made of man 
and he will tell you skill is late 
tho' i get home how late how late 
not like the gnat had i 
did i sing too loud?
