VENETIAN BLIND by HELEN DARBY BERNING

First Line: SKY SLATTED WITH SAFFRON BARS
Last Line: CLOSES THE BLIND.
Subject(s): WINDOW TREATMENTS; VENETIAN BLINDS; CURTAINS; SHADES; DRAPES;
Sky slatted with saffron bars,
Shutters of mauve,
Apricot lined.

Night, pinning a cuff of stars
To velvet sleeve,
Closes the blind.
