ON KILLING A TREE- GIEVE PATEL

• 
  

• It takes/ much time /to kill/ a tree,
  Not /a simple jab/ of the knife
  Will do it./ It has grown
  Slowly consuming /the earth,
  Rising /out of it, /feeding
  Upon/ its crust, /absorbing
  Years/ of sunlight,/ air, /water,
  And /out of /its/ leperous/ hide
• Sprouting/leaves.
•  So hack /and chop
• But this/ alone /wont /do it.
• Not /so much pain/ will do/ it.
• The bleeding/ bark/ will heal
• And /from close/ to the ground
• Will rise/ curled /green twigs,
• Miniature /boughs
• Which /if /unchecked/will /expand again
• To/ former size.
• No,
• The root/ is to be/ pulled out 
• Out of /the /anchoring earth;

• It is/ to be roped, /tied,
• And/pulled out/ - snapped out
• Or/ pulled out /entirely
• Out/ from /the earth-cave,
• And /the strength/ of the tree /exposed,
• The source,/ white /and wet,
• The most/ sensitive,/ hidden
• For years/ inside /the earth.
• Then /the matter
  Of scorching/ and choking
  In sun /and air,
  Browning,/ hardening,
  Twisting,/ withering,
  And then/ it is/ done.
• xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

• The River

  Caroline Ann Bowles

   

  River,/ river, /little river!

  Bright /you sparkle /on your way;

  O’er/ the yellow pebbles/ dancing,

  Through /the flowers/ and foliage glancing,/

  Like /a child /at play./

   way/play,dancing/glancing            (rhyming)

  River, /river!/ Swelling river!

  On /you rush/ through /rough and smooth;

  Louder,/ faster,/ brawling, /leaping.

  Over rocks, /by rose-banks/, sweeping

  Like/impetuous/youth.      smooth/youth,leaping/sweeping.     (rhyming)

  River, //river! Brimming river!

  Broad /and deep,/ and /still as time;

  Seeming still,/ yet still/ in motion,

  Tending/ onward /to the ocean,

  Just like /mortal prime./     (rhyming) time/prime,                                                        motion/ocean 

   

  River, /river!/ Headlong river!

  Down /you dash/ into the sea,

  Sea /that line/ hath never /sounded,

  Sea /that sail /hath/ never rounded,

  Like/ eternity.                ( rhyming :                                                                          sounded/rounded)

STOPPING BY WOODS ON A SNOWY EVENING- ROBERT FROST.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

BY ROBERT FROST

Whose woods/ these are /I think /I know.   

His house /is/ in the village/ though;   

He will not /see me/ stopping here   /

To watch/ his woods /fill up/ with snow.   

My little horse/ must /think /it queer   

To stop/ without /a farmhouse/ near   

Between /the woods /and frozen /lake   

The darkest /evening /of /the year.   

He gives /his harness /bells /a shake   

To ask /if there/ is/some mistake.   

The only /other /sound’s/ the sweep   

Of easy wind/ and/ downy /flake.   

The woods/ are lovely,/ dark /and deep,   

But /I have /promises /to keep,   

And miles /to go/ before /I sleep,   

And miles /to go //before /I sleep.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

To watch his woods fill up with snow.   

My little horse must think it queer   

To stop without a farmhouse near   

Between the woods and frozen lake   

The darkest evening of the year.   

He gives his harness bells a shake   

To ask if there is some mistake.   

The only other sound’s the sweep   

Of easy wind and downy flake.   

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,   

But I have promises to keep,   

And miles to go before I sleep,   

And miles to go before I sleep.
