Something inspires the only cow of late
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
Sound of the Trees, The
Spoils of the Dead
Star in a Stone-Boat, A
Stars
Storm Fear
Telephone, The
The battle rent a cobweb diamond-strung
The buzz-saw snarled and rattled in the yard
The city had withdrawn into itself
The farmhouse lingers, though averse to square
The house had gone to bring again
The line-storm clouds fly tattered and swift,
The mountain held the town as in a shadow
The sound of the closing outside door was all
The three stood listening to a fresh access
The tree the tempest with a crash of wood
The way a crow
The well was dry beside the door,
There is a singer everyone has heard,
There overtook me and drew me in
There was never a sound beside the wood but one,
There were three in the meadow by the brook
There’s a patch of old snow in a corner
They leave us so to the way we took,
They sent him back to her. The letter came
Thine emulous fond flowers are dead, too,
This saying good-by on the edge of the dark
Thus of old the Douglas did
Time to Talk, A
To drive Paul out of any lumber camp
To E. T.
To the Thawing Wind
To think to know the country and not know
Trial by Existence, The
Tuft of Flowers, The
Two fairies it was
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
Two Witches
Valley’s Singing Day, The
Vanishing Red, The
Vantage Point, The
Waiting
We chanced in passing by that afternoon
We make ourselves a place apart
What things for dream there are when spectre-like,
What tree may not the fig be gathered from?
When a friend calls to me from the road
When I go up through the mowing field,
When I see birches bend to left and right
“When I was just as far as I could walk
When I was young, we dwelt in a vale
When the wind works against us in the dark,
Wild Grapes
“Willis, I didn’t want you here today:
Wind and Window Flower
Wood-Pile, The
You come to fetch me from my work to-night
“You ought to have seen what I saw on my way
You were forever finding some new play
