SONGS OF THE SEA CHILDREN: 2, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: The day is lost without thee
Last Line: All know how good it is.
Subject(s): Love


The day is lost without thee,
The night has not a star.
Thy going is an empty room
Whose door is left ajar.
Depart: it is the footfall
Of twilight on the hills.
Return: and every rood of ground
Breaks into daffodils.
Thy coming is companioned
By presences of bliss;
The rivers and the little leaves
All know how good it is.
