Read 3610 times on American Poems.
You said you would kill it this morning.
Do not kill it. It startles me still,
The jut of that odd, dark head, pacing
Through the uncut grass on the elm's hill.

Or just to be visited at all.
I am not mystical: it... (Read full poem)

Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
I heard a Negro play.

By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light
He did a lazy sway . . .
He did a lazy sway . . .

How does Love speak?
In the faint flush upon the tell-tale cheek,
And in the pallor that succeeds it; by
The quivering lid of an averted eye –
The smile that proves the parent to a sigh –

At midnight, in the month of June,
I stand beneath the mystic moon.
An opiate vapor, dewy, dim,
Exhales from out her golden rim,
And, softly dripping, drop by drop,
Upon the quiet mountain top,
Steals drowsily and musically
Into the universal... (Read full poem)

Each thorn; spiring from wet earth, a blue haze
Hung caught in... (Read full poem)

Often I think of the beautiful town
That is seated by the sea;
Often in thought go up and down
The pleasant streets of that dear old town,

Her dark blue... (Read full poem)

And then went down to the ship,
Set keel to breakers, forth on the godly sea, and
