SUNSHINE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: With never a cloud from north to south
Last Line: Come, night, but bring nor moon nor stars.
Subject(s): Sun


WITH never a cloud from north to south,
The faint blue sky is bright and clear
As a mirror held to a dead man's mouth,
Whilst one breathes quick for hope and fear.

All day the harvest-fields lie blest
With goldening glow no mist-fleck mars:
All day a heart cries toward the west:
Come, night, but bring nor moon nor stars.
