LIFE'S GULF STREAM by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: STARS THAT IN THE DARKNESS BLOOM
Last Line: TO THE COAST OF NIGHT.
Subject(s): NIGHT; BEDTIME;

Stars that in the darkness bloom
Wither in the light;
Dreams begotten of the gloom
Take their morning flight.

And, the gleam of fancy gone,
From the current of the dawn
Tidal memories are drawn
To the coast of Night.
