all by all and deep by deep and more by more they dream their sleep noone and anyone earth by april wish by spirit and if by yes

a man who had fallen among thieves lay by the roadside on his back dressed in fifteenthrate ideas wearing a round jeer for a hat

Whenever you think or you believe or you know, you're a lot of other people: but the moment you feel, you're nobody-but-yourself.

Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit.

Women and men(both little and small) cared for anyone not at all they sowed their isn’t they reaped their same sun moon stars rain

one day anyone died i guess (and noone stooped to kiss his face) busy folk buried them side by side little by little and was by was

Peering from some high window; at the gold of November sunset (and feeling that if day has to become night this is a beautiful way).

how should tasting touching hearing seeing breathing any lifted from the no of all nothing human merely being doubt unimaginable You?

So far as I am concerned, poetry and every other art was, is, and forever will be strictly and distinctly a question of individuality.

wholly to be a fool while Spring is in the world my blood approves, and kisses are a far better fate than wisdom lady i swear by all flowers.

The hardest fight a man has to fight is to live in a world where every single day someone is trying to make you someone you do not want to be--

A wind has blown the rain away and blown the sky away and all the leaves away, and the trees stand. I think, I too, have known autumn too long.

Your slightest look easily will unclose me, though I have closed myself as fingers, you open petal by petal myself a Spring opens her first rose.

someones married their everyones laughed their cryings and did their dance (sleep wake hope and then) they said their nevers they slept their dream
