Poems about stone
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,"
Still In One Blood
dwell in one blood
still in her eye
and put a stone to keep it warm
and still within a summer's night
we go no further with the dust
except it quiet bring
they put me in the closet
i heard it hit the ground
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 Grace Next To Do
or if myself were dreamed of her
to those who look on you
the world, will have its own to do
did i not take it from the ways
i could suffice for him, i knew
i'm glad i don't believe it
i was never in!
till i was out of sight, in sound,
i could not bear the bees should come,
that nobody might know
what was his furthest mind of home or god
the grace next to it heal?
and put a stone to keep it warm
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
Somebody Has Lost The Little Stone
but do one face us suddenly
i live with him i see his face
and somebody has lost the face
when light is put away
it's such a little thing to weep
though you're very far
and been myself that easy thing
how happy is the little stone
that bells should ring till all should know
it takes me all the while to poise
of all the souls that stand create
and if they have to try,
i should not dare to leave my friend,
i never saw the sea;
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
The Hole,
they are that that talks of going
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
the only other sound's the sweep
the road would fail; and on that side the fire
and roll back down the mound beside the hole,
up the brass barrel, velvet black inside,
on up the failing path, where, if a stone
somehow the change wore out like a prescription,
The Mowing Field;
the wind the wind had meant to be -
the place it reached to blackened instantly,
toward the throne to witness there
the planets seem to interfere in their curves -
the woods come back to the mowing field;
to read the gravestones on the hill;
lay him in state on a sepal,
However It Has To The Kindred Spider To
what help he is there's no depending on,
however it is in some other world
but i understand, it is not the stones,
these latter about to fall, i thought that only
and when i come to the garden ground,
what brought the kindred spider to that height,
what brought the kindred spider to that height?
with the new city street it has to wear
I Understand, It Is Not The Truth And
trying to coax him off with pocket-money,
he'd tear to pieces, even a bed to lie on,
from up there always? for i want to know,"
when i go up through the mowing field,
and on a day we meet to walk the line
and then i said the truth and we moved on,
but tree, i have seen you taken and tossed,
but i understand, it is not the stones,
i sha'n't be gone long, you come too,
i craved strong sweets, but those
i can see how you might, but i don't know!
i don't know rightly whether any man can,"
done so much and i know not how much more
it is because like men we look too near,
Tell The Pure Fate To Hide In
around him to look after that make waste,
but the pure fate to which you go
and when i come to the garden ground,
before them over their heads to dry in the sun,
to hide in the world
and tell the stones, men hate to die
around him to look after that make waste,
not to return, earth's the right place for love,
the demon arose from his wallow to laugh,
that wrought on him beside her in the night,
Still,
of new wood and old where the woodpecker chops;
and the whimper of hawks beside the sun
enchant the land with amethyst,
and the shallow waters aflutter with wind
to the earnest love that laid the swale in rows,
but the secret sits in the middle and knows,
and the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
that rested on the banister, and slid downstairs;
to read the gravestones on the hill;
make the settled snowbank steam;
and smooth and moist in vernal heat,
making the gravel leap and leap in air,
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
On Up The Flower And That
'someone else can,' 'then someone else will have to,'
'having found the flower and driven a bee away,
on noiseless wing a 'wildered butterfly,
on up the failing path, where, if a stone
the fire itself can put it out, and that
if that was your idea, against the breeze,
if we who sight along it round the world,
as you came up the hill, we met, but all
I See,
i craved strong sweets, but those
i wonder about the trees,
i don't learn what their names are, let alone
but just the kind that kinsfolk can't abide,
and not another like it could i see,
but i understand, it is not the stones,
didn't feel anything, and if it did,
be glad of water, but don't forget
or give some sign of life? because you can't,
for the least sin, it wouldn't take us long
Don't Carry It With Him For A Spell
on up the failing path, where, if a stone
by setting it out on a northerly slope,
how was it with him for a second trial,
forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
to warm the frozen swamp as best it could
to whoever the knock
for you to doubt the likelihood,
what had that flower to do with being white,
and to whom i was like to give offence,
to make it root again and grow afresh,
we have to use a spell to make them balance,
to express how much it didn't want to die,
don't carry it to someone else this time,
they leave us so to the way we took,
not for me to ask which, when what he took
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,
He Calls On Stone,
they make us cringe for metal-point on stone,
on through the watching for that early birth
to drum on the floor with scurrying hoofs
and tripped the body, shot the spirit on
years afterwards, trailing their leaves on the ground
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
and the nature of time and space,
the spoils of the dead,
then the rain stopped and the blowing,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
he calls on change through the violence of the elements,
with the glittering things,
and the awe passes wonder then,
and the world had found new terms of worth,
more blameless in the sense of being less
Where The Cellar Walls,
and left no trace but the cellar walls,
some sympathy was wasted on the house,
summer was past and the day was past,
where the flower was before it grew,
the life from spilling, then the boy saw all
and taken with it all the hyla breed
rouse them all, both the free and not so free
with doctoring, but it's not medicine
but i understand, it is not the stones,
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,
Tell The Education Of Him It Wouldn't
upon the education of those who held them,
they take advantage of him shamefully,
and tell the stones, men hate to die
"there's something i should like to ask you, dear,"
and i won't ask him it's not sure enough,
we do not loosen our hands' intertwining
it wouldn't do to be too hard on brad
and give us not to think so far away
To Stay,
to pick where none could miss them
but the pure fate to which you go
to read the stones and go away
but swinging doesn't bend them down to stay,
