Robert Frost - Putting In The SeedRobert Frost - Putting In The Seed
Work rating: Medium


You come to fetch me from my work to-night   When supper`s on the table, and we`ll see   If I can leave off burying the white   Soft petals fallen from the apple tree.   (Soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite,   Mingled with these, smooth bean and wrinkled pea   And go along with you ere you lose sight   Of what you came for and become like me,   Slave to a springtime passion for the earth.   How Love burns through the Putting in the Seed   On through the watching for that early birth   When, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,   The sturdy seedling with arched body comes   Shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs.
