He is alive, this morning —
He is alive — and awake —
Birds are resuming for Him —
Blossoms — dress for His Sake.
Bees — to their Loaves of Honey
Add an Amber Crumb
Him — to regale — Me — Only —
Motion, and am dumb.

  I am alive — I guess — 
 The Branches on my Hand
 Are full of Morning Glory —
 And at my finger's end —
 The Carmine — tingles warm —
 And if I hold a Glass
 Across my Mouth — it blurs it —
 Physician's — proof of Breath —
 I am alive — because
 I am not in a Room —...If I should n't be alive 
 When the robins come,
 Give the one in red cravat
 A memorial crumb.
 If I could n't thank you,
 Being just asleep,
 You will know I'm trying
 With my granite lip !It feels a shame to be Alive — 
 When Men so brave — are dead —
 One envies the Distinguished Dust —
 Permitted — such a Head —
 The Stone — that tells defending Whom
 This Spartan put away
 What little of Him we — possessed
 In Pawn for Liberty —
 The price is great —...To be alive — is Power — 
 Existence — in itself —
 Without a further function —
 Omnipotence — Enough —
 To be alive — and Will!
 'Tis able as a God —
 The Maker — of Ourselves — be what —
 Such being Finitude!While it is alive 
 Until Death touches it
 While it and I lap one Air
 Dwell in one Blood
 Under one Sacrament
 Show me Division can split or pare —
 Love is like Life — merely longer
 Love is like Death, during the Grave
 Love is the Fellow of the Resurrection
 Scooping...
