1There is another sky
2I'm Nobody! Who are you?
3Because I could not stop for Death
4Nobody knows this little Rose
5I started Early -- Took my Dog --
6Awake ye muses nine
7If I can stop one Heart from breaking
8My life closed twice before its close --
9Heart! We will forget him!
10A narrow Fellow in the Grass
11I never saw a Moor --
12I heard a Fly buzz -- when I died
13"Hope" is the thing with feathers
14I died for Beauty -- but was scarce
15The Brain -- is wider than the Sky --
16Through the Dark Sod -- as Education
17You love me -- you are sure
18Tell all the Truth but tell it slant --
19The Red -- Blaze -- is the Morning
20A slash of Blue
21Success is counted sweetest
22The Soul selects her own Society
23A Route of Evanescence
24I taste a liquor never brewed
25If I should die,
26"Sic transit gloria mundi"
27I felt a Funeral, in my Brain,
28Much Madness is divinest Sense
29One Sister have I in our house
30There's been a Death, in the Opposite House,
31There is a solitude of space
32This is my letter to the World
33"Faith" is a fine invention
34There's a certain Slant of light,
35We never know how high we are
36After great pain, a formal feeling comes
37If those I loved were lost
38There is a word
39Wild Nights -- Wild Nights!
40"Sic transit gloria mundi"
41Apparently with no surprise
42It was not Death, for I stood up,
43We lose -- because we win
44Fame is a bee.
45I have a Bird in spring
46Snow flakes.
47How happy is the little Stone
48I cannot live with You --
49I like to see it lap the Miles --
50If you were coming in the Fall,
51My Life had stood -- a Loaded Gun --
52Some keep the Sabbath going to Church
53Going to Heaven!
54I'll tell you how the Sun rose
55Safe in their Alabaster Chambers
56Sleep is supposed to be
57The Bustle in a House
58This World is not Conclusion.
59To see the Summer Sky
60Water, is taught by thirst.
61A Bird came down the Walk
62A Route of Evanescence
63 I dreaded that first Robin, so,
64I never lost as much but twice
65I robbed the Woods
66It sifts from Leaden Sieves
67On this wondrous sea
68The Guest is gold and crimson
69A word is dead
70Ample make this Bed --
71Frequently the wood are pink
72He ate and drank the precious Words --
73I never told the buried gold
74It's all I have to bring today
75My wheel is in the dark!
76She died -- this was the way she died.
77She sweeps with many-colored Brooms
78That after Horror -- that 'twas us
79"Heaven" -- is what I cannot reach!
80Angels, in the early morning
81Baffled for just a day or two
82Bring me the sunset in a cup,
83Death sets a Thing significant
84Faith -- is the Pierless Bridge
85I measure every Grief I meet
86Pain -- has an Element of Blank --
87The Moon was but a Chin of Gold
88The only Ghost I ever saw
89When Roses cease to bloom, Sir,
90'Twas just this time, last year, I died.
91A sepal, petal, and a thorn
92At Half past Three, a single Bird
93Before the ice is in the pools
94Death is a Dialogue between
95Drowning is not so pitiful
96God is indeed a jealous God --
97I felt a Cleaving in my Mind --
98I had been hungry, all the Years --
99I'm "wife" -- I've finished that
100If this is "fading"
101In this short Life
102Nature -- the Gentlest Mother is,
103Papa above!
104So has a Daisy vanished
105The morns are meeker than they were
106The Sun in reigning to the West
107There came a Wind like a Bugle --
108These are the days when Birds come back
109We grow accustomed to the Dark
110'Tis whiter than an Indian Pipe --
111A fuzzy fellow, without feet,
112A Light exists in Spring
113A Wounded Deer -- leaps highest
114Adrift! A little boat adrift!
115Behind Me -- dips Eternity --
116Could live -- did live
117Crumbling is not an instant's Act
118Fame is a fickle food
119I dwell in Possibility --
120I had a guinea golden
121I met a King this afternoon!
122I took my power in my hand
123Is it too late to touch you, Dear?
124Jesus! thy Crucifix
125My friend must be a Bird
126My River runs to thee
127Our lives are Swiss
128Sexton! My Master's sleeping here.
129The earth has many keys,
130The Heart asks Pleasure -- first --
131The rainbow never tells me
132The saddest noise, the sweetest noise,
133The Soul's Superior instants
134The Thrill came slowly like a Boom for
135There is no Frigate like a Book
136There's something quieter than sleep
137They might not need me -- yet they might --
138To fight aloud, is very brave
139To know just how He suffered -- would be dear --
140We outgrow love, like other things
141What is -- "Paradise"
142Within my reach!
143"Heavenly Father" -- take to thee
144A Day! Help! Help! Another Day!
145A poor -- torn heart -- a tattered heart
146A transport one cannot contain
147Ah, Teneriffe!
148All but Death, can be Adjusted --
149Are Friends Delight or Pain?
150As imperceptibly as Grief
151Bee! I'm expecting you!
152Between the form of Life and Life
153Blazing in Gold and quenching in Purple
154Departed -- to the Judgment --
155Did life's penurious length
156Dying! Dying in the night!
157Elysium is as far as to
158Exultation is the going
159Forever at His side to walk
160God gave a Loaf to every Bird --
161Going to Him! Happy letter!
162Good night, because we must,
163He fumbles at your Soul
164He put the Belt around my life
165Her -- "last Poems"
166Her breast is fit for pearls,
167How many times these low feet staggered
168I am alive -- I guess
169I can't tell you -- but you feel it
170I felt my life with both my hands
171I haven't told my garden yet
172I held a Jewel in my fingers
173I hide myself within my flower,
174I like a look of Agony,
175I never hear the word "escape"
176I often passed the village
177I see thee better -- in the Dark --
178I should not dare to leave my friend,
179I sing to use the Waiting
180I stole them from a Bee
181I went to Heaven
182I would distil a cup
183I would not paint -- a picture --
184I'm ceded -- I've stopped being Theirs --
185If I shouldn't be alive
186If recollecting were forgetting,
187If your Nerve, deny you
188Is it true, dear Sue?
189Like her the Saints retire,
190Love -- is anterior to Life --
191Love's stricken "why"
192Many a phrase has the English language
193Mine Enemy is growing old --
194My friend attacks my friend!
195Of all the Souls that stand create --
196Oh, honey of an hour,
197On such a night, or such a night,
198Once more, my now bewildered Dove
199Poor little Heart!
200Publication -- is the Auction
201Put up my lute!
202Sang from the Heart, Sire,
203Severer Service of myself
204She slept beneath a tree
205So bashful when I spied her!
206So give me back to Death --
207Some say goodnight -- at night --
208Sunset at Night -- is natural
209Surgeons must be very careful
210That it will never come again
211The Bee is not afraid of me.
212The Definition of Beauty is
213The difference between Despair
214The farthest Thunder that I heard
215The feet of people walking home
216The Grass so little has to do
217The largest Fire ever known
218The mob within the heart
219The Voice that stands for Floods to me
220The Work of Her that went,
221There is a morn by men unseen
222This quiet Dust was Gentleman and Ladies
223This was a Poet -- It is That
224Those final Creatures, -- who they are --
225Through lane it lay -- through bramble
226Through those old Grounds of memory,
227Tie the Strings to my Life, My Lord,
228Unable are the Loved to die
229We should not mind so small a flower
230We talked as Girls do --
231What Soft -- Cherubic Creatures
232What tenements of clover
233When Katie walks, this simple pair accompany her side,
234Where I have lost, I softer tread
235Where Ships of Purple -- gently toss
236Will there really be a "Morning"?
237Witchcraft was hung, in History,
238You cannot put a Fire out --
239You left me -- Sire -- two Legacies --
240"And with what body do they come?" --
241"Arcturus" is his other name
242"Faithful to the end" Amended
243"Red Sea," indeed! Talk not to me
244"Why do I love" You, Sir?
245'Tis not that Dying hurts us so
246'Tis so much joy! 'Tis so much joy!
247'Twas comfort in her Dying Room
248'Twas like a Maelstrom, with a notch,
249'Twas such a little -- little boat
250A Charm invests a face
251A Diamond on the Hand
252A Drop Fell on the Apple Tree --
253A great Hope fell
254A happy lip -- breaks sudden
255A Lady red -- amid the Hill
256A little East of Jordan,
257A little Madness in the Spring
258A little Snow was here and there
259A long -- long Sleep -- A famous -- Sleep --
260A Prison gets to be a friend --
261A Secret told
262A shady friend -- for Torrid days
263A single Screw of Flesh
264A Thought went up my mind today --
265A Tooth upon Our Peace
266A World made penniless by that departure
267Afraid! Of whom am I afraid?
268After all Birds have been investigated and laid aside --
269Ah, Necromancy Sweet!
270All that I do
271All these my banners be.
272Alter! When the Hills do --
273Always Mine!
274An altered look about the hills
275An honest Tear
276An Hour is a Sea
277And this of all my Hopes
278As by the dead we love to sit,
279As if some little Arctic flower
280As Summer into Autumn slips
281As Watchers hang upon the East,
282Beauty -- be not caused -- It Is --
283Best Witchcraft is Geometry
284Between My Country -- and the Others --
285Birthday of but a single pang
286Bless God, he went as soldiers,
287Bliss is the plaything of the child --
288Brother of Ingots -- Ah Peru --
289By Chivalries as tiny,
290By such and such an offering
291Circumference thou Bride of Awe
292Cocoon above! Cocoon below!
293Conferring with myself
294Dear March -- Come in --
295Defrauded I a Butterfly --
296Dew -- is the Freshet in the Grass --
297Distrustful of the Gentian
298Doom is the House without the Door
299Dust is the only Secret
300Each Scar I'll keep for Him
301Except to Heaven, she is nought.
302Exhilaration is the Breeze
303Fame is the one that does not stay --
304Few, yet enough,
305Floss won't save you from an Abyss
306Flowers -- Well -- if anybody
307Follow wise Orion
308For each ecstatic instant
309From Blank to Blank --
310Garland for Queens, may be
311Glee -- The great storm is over --
312God is a distant -- stately Lover
313God permits industrious Angels
314Good Morning -- Midnight
315Good Night! Which put the Candle out?
316Gratitude -- is not the mention
317Great Streets of silence led away
318Have you got a Brook in your little heart,
319He who in Himself believes --
320Heart, not so heavy as mine
321Heaven is so far of the Mind
322Her face was in a bed of hair,
323His Heart was darker than the starless night
324Hope is a strange invention --
325How brittle are the Piers
326How Human Nature dotes
327How lonesome the Wind must feel Nights --
328How soft a Caterpillar steps --
329How soft this Prison is
330I asked no other thing --
331 I could suffice for Him, I knew --
332I fear a Man of frugal Speech --
333I fit for them --
334I gave myself to Him --
335I got so I could take his name
336I have a King, who does not speak
337I have no Life but this --
338I keep my pledge.
339I know lives, I could miss
340I know some lonely Houses off the Road
341I know that He exists.
342I many times thought Peace had come
343I never felt at Home -- Below
344I reason, Earth is short
345I see thee clearer for the Grave
346I send Two Sunsets
347I shall keep singing!
348I worked for chaff and earning Wheat
349I Years had been from Home
350I'm sorry for the Dead -- Today --
351I've known a Heaven, like a Tent
352Ideals are the Fairly Oil
353If all the griefs I am to have
354If ever the lid gets off my head
355If I could bribe them by a Rose
356If I should cease to bring a Rose
357If Nature smiles -- the Mother must
358If pain for peace prepares
359In Ebon Box, when years have flown
360In rags mysterious as these
361In snow thou comest --
362In Winter in my Room
363Inconceivably solemn!
364Is Immortality a bane
365It did not surprise me
366It don't sound so terrible -- quite -- as it did
367It feels a shame to be Alive
368It is easy to work when the soul is at play
369It might be lonelier
370It was too late for Man --
371It's such a little thing to weep
372Least Rivers -- docile to some sea
373Lest they should come -- is all my fear
374Let me not mar that perfect Dream
375Like eyes that looked on Wastes
376Like Rain it sounded till it curved
377Like Trains of Cars on Tracks of Plush
378Long Years apart -- can make no
379Me prove it now -- Whoever doubt
380Meeting by Accident,
381More than the Grave is closed to me --
382Morns like these -- we parted
383Musicians wrestle everywhere
384My Cocoon tightens -- Colors tease --
385My Heart ran so to thee
386My Maker -- let me be
387My nosegays are for Captives
388My Soul -- accused me -- And I quailed --
389Never for Society
390No Life can pompless pass away --
391No matter -- now -- Sweet --
392No matter where the Saints abide,
393No Notice gave She, but a Change --
394Not that he goes -- we love him more
395Not to discover weakness is
396Now I lay thee down to Sleep --
397Of Consciousness, her awful Mate
398Of Course -- I prayed
399Of so divine a Loss
400On a Columnar Self --
401One Life of so much Consequence!
402One Year ago -- jots what?
403Our journey had advanced --
404Over the fence
405Partake as doth the Bee,
406Patience -- has a quiet Outer --
407Perception of an object costs
408Perhaps you'd like to buy a flower,
409Praise it -- 'tis dead --
410Prayer is the little implement
411Proud of my broken heart, since thou didst break it,
412Purple -- is fashionable twice --
413Rearrange a "Wife's" affection!
414Savior! I've no one else to tell
415She bore it till the simple veins
416She died at play,
417She laid her docile Crescent down
418She went as quiet as the Dew
419Shells from the Coast mistaking --
420So from the mould
421So I pull my Stockings off
422So proud she was to die
423Soft as the massacre of Suns
424Some things that fly there be
425Sometimes with the Heart
426Soul, take thy risk.
427Split the Lark -- and you'll find the Music --
428Summer -- we all have seen --
429That I did always love
430That is solemn we have ended
431That Love is all there is,
432The Butterfly's Numidian Gown
433The distance that the dead have gone
434The Doomed -- regard the Sunrise
435The Drop, that wrestles in the Sea
436The fairest Home I ever knew
437The first Day that I was a Life
438The Flake the Wind exasperate
439The Flower must not blame the Bee
440The Gentian weaves her fringes
441The going from a world we know
442The healed Heart shows its shallow scar
443The last Night that She lived
444The Life that tied too tight escapes
445The longest day that God appoints
446The Mountains -- grow unnoticed --
447The murmuring of Bees, has ceased
448The name -- of it -- is "Autumn" --
449The nearest Dream recedes -- unrealized
450The parasol is the umbrella's daughter,
451The Road to Paradise is plain,
452The Rose did caper on her cheek
453The Sky is low -- the Clouds are mean.
454The Soul has Bandaged moments --
455The Spider as an Artist
456The spry Arms of the Wind
457The Sun is gay or stark
458The Sun kept stooping -- stooping -- low!
459The Tint I cannot take -- is best --
460The Whole of it came not at once --
461The Wind -- tapped like a tired Man
462The Wind begun to rock the Grass
463The words the happy say
464The worthlessness of Earthly things
465There are two Mays
466There came a Day at Summer's full
467There is a finished feeling
468There is a June when Corn is cut
469There is no Silence in the Earth -- so silent
470They dropped like Flakes
471This -- is the land -- the Sunset washes
472This Chasm, Sweet, upon my life
473This heart that broke so long
474This was in the White of the Year --
475Those -- dying then,
476To be alive -- is Power --
477To die -- takes just a little while
478To help our Bleaker Parts
479To lose thee -- sweeter than to gain
480To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
481To make Routine a Stimulus
482To mend each tattered Faith
483To undertake is to achieve
484Too happy Time dissolves itself
485Two butterflies went out at Noon --
486Uncertain lease -- develops lustre
487Unto a broken heart
488Volcanoes be in Sicily
489We don't cry -- Tim and I,
490We dream -- it is good we are dreaming --
491Went up a year this evening!
492What Inn is this
493What we see we know somewhat
494Whether my bark went down at sea
495Which is best? Heaven --
496Which misses most,
497Who never lost, are unprepared
498Whose cheek is this?
499Why -- do they shut Me out of Heaven?
500Would you like summer? Taste of ours.
501"Go tell it" -- What a Message --
502"Go travelling with us!"
503"Heaven" has different Signs -- to me --
504"Houses" -- so the Wise Men tell me
505"I want" -- it pleaded -- All its life --
506"Lethe" in my flower,
507"Morning" -- means "Milking" -- to the Farmer
508"Nature" is what we see --
509"Remember me" implored the Thief!
510"Secrets" is a daily word
511"Sown in dishonor"!
512"Speech" -- is a prank of Parliament --
513"They have not chosen me," he said,
514"Tomorrow" -- whose location
515"Unto Me?" I do not know you --
516"Was not" was all the Statement.
517'Tis Anguish grander than Delight
518'Tis customary as we part
519'Tis easier to pity those when dead
520'Tis good -- the looking back on Grief --
521'Tis little I -- could care for Pearls
522'Tis my first night beneath the Sun
