Poems about whole
A Darting Fear A Tear
a darting fear a pomp a tear
endow the living with the tears
then close the valves of her attention
the whole of me forever
When I
forgive us, if as days decline
he longer must than i
how mightier he than i
where i have rambled so
what i see not, i better see
when i have lost, you'll know by this
they have a little odor that to me
the whole of it came not at once
if i must tell you, of a horse
needs but to remember
how mean to those that see
how pleased they were, at what you said
nor could i rise with you
to gain, or be undone
Forget It In My Hand
seen magic through the fright
and when some night bold slashing clouds
discern d still withholden
best horizon gone
forget it lord of them
i'd give to live that hour again
if other news there be
for they've never gone
you beg him not to go
when i could take it in my hand
i had not had but for yourself
i thought it would be opposite
i'm glad i don't believe it
i fear me this circumference
we learned the whole of love
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
I Heard It Cannot See
that knows it cannot see
that were not, we are sure
could not decide between
her needle would not go
and then it's time to strike my tent
i would as soon attempt to warm
i have a bird in spring
i heard it hit the ground
i know the whole obscures the part
tell which it's dull to guess
but make no syllable like death
the soul cannot be rid
or sometimes at your side to run
only a bee will miss it
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
He That Hath Endured
it ceased to hurt me, though so slow
but what that place could be
might he know
he who in himself believes
or brethren, had he
but he that hath endured
they would not encore death
but tell him that it ceased to feel
the whole of it came not at once
He Must Have Done Expecting Me
belief but once can be
somehow, it will be even
it is easy to work when the soul is at play
it would be life
i'd rather be the one
that i the answer may pursue
he must have achieved in person
that they have done expecting me
the whole of it came not at once
and even when the snow
until you felt your second
for my will goes the other way,
that makes no show for dawn
it should not tease you
Why It Be Possible
lest this beloved charge
the whole of me forever
the grace that i was chose
and why it was so still
as small they say as i
are we that wait sufficient worth
in doubtful meal, if it be possible
to hands i cannot see
for you know we do not mind our dress
and they can put it with my dolls,
were he to tell extremely sorry
How Many Times It Is Put Away
of his profound to come
though life's reward be done
dreams are well but waking's better,
no nearer neighbor have they
when the latter is put away
it is the ultimate of talk
to stop and tell them where it is
you will not wake them up,"
the world, will have its own to do
you almost feel the date
i know the whole obscures the part
the pearl the just our thought,
the difference made me bold
how many times it ache for me today confess
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
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
Then Steered The Right To View The Night,
then steered the white moth thither in the night?
and the moth carried like a paper kite,
the life from spilling, then the boy saw all
one back and forward, in and out of shadow,
to find fused in another star,
to have inside the house with doors unlocked,
here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
to better its perch for the night,
to leave it to, whether the right to hold
before i came to view the levelled scene,
to flames without twice thinking, where it verges
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
Clear To Cheek,
he wouldn't let me put him on the lounge,
when he did what he did and burned his house down,
clear to the ground, he always kept his poise
and back and forth he sways from cheek to cheek,
not the same doe come back into her place,
of really never having meant to keep it,
next to nothing for weight,
rather than send their folks to such a place,
and taken with it all the hyla breed
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
it blow but that you saw the trees in motion,
Far Off The Face Of Trees,
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
beyond the shadow of a doubt;
so inconsolably in the face of love,
the stricken flower bent double and so hung,
salmon and sturgeon, lashing with their tails,
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
the light of heaven falls whole and white
of things of moment to which, they wist,
before he came to the land of spain,
all simply in the springing of the year,
not of woods only and the shade of trees,
and the world had found new terms of worth,
bring the singer, bring the nester;
the work of hunters is another thing,
in the shape of a man,
Seemed Strong When I Am Overtired
of apple-picking, i am overtired
seemed strong when i was young;
because it was grassy and wanted wear;
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns
and then there was a pile of wood for which
a little through the lips and throat,
a cloud comes over the sunlit arch,
and a hush falls for all acclaim,
and work was little in the house,
and golden seems the sandy plain,
the overimportant pair,
the ties gave,
across the handle's long, drawn serpentine,
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
but all came every night with the mist;
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,
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,
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,
To The Gully,
to watch his woods fill up with snow,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
to every thing on earth the compass round,
to ensure their not being wasted on me,
to seek the happy isles together,
and would have turned to toss the grass to dry;
someone to salt the half-wild steer,
to lean against and hear in the dark,
and started down the gully,
the graveyard draws the living still,
but the black spread like black death on the ground,
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
to seek the happy isles together,
the bridegroom thought it little to give
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,
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
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,
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
With Doors That Are Slain
even the bravest that are slain
and have our fire and laugh and be afraid,�
coming and going all the time, they are,
with doors that none but the wind ever closes,
with the glittering things,
with mischievous, vagrant, seraphic look,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns
and be glad of a good roof overhead,
looking out of a wreath of fern and cloud puffs,
vague dream head lifted out of the ground,
The Least Stiffening Of Bending Like A Daunting
reflects a standing gull
but in a moment not, a little spurt
on every tree a bucket with a lid,
and turned on him with such a daunting look,
of bending like a sword across the knee,
the light of heaven falls whole and white
with the least stiffening of her neck and silence,
and like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
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,
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
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,
Now The Hills,
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
with the least stiffening of her neck and silence,
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
and bought the telescope with what it came to,
dragging the whole sky with it to the hills,
