A Sonnet For Brit. Lit. II

Sometime last night I looked to the skyAnd saw engulfed in colors grey and blue

The stars and planets and moon sailing byWith a faint, silver, luminescent hue.

The atmosphere an airy cloak and black Became more dappled with cloud and with lightAs the evening waned and I turned my back For the sun had come to cover the night.

I sat on my hill as the sun rose high,A little robin kept me company.She sang; I lay back and stared at the sky

And waited for mornings rays to kiss me.

My night, having been spent, I longed for bedBut slept where I lay, pillow grass for my head.
