HARBORS by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: FULL MANY A NOONDAY NOOK I KNOW
Last Line: THIS SIDE THE CONTINENT OF NIGHT.
Subject(s): MEMORY; SOLITUDE; LONELINESS;
Full many a noonday nook I know
Where memory is fain to go
And wait in silence till the shade
Of sleep the solitude invade.

For these the resting-places are
Of dreams that, journeying afar,
Pause in their migratory flight
This side the continent of night.
