Sowing
16 lines✦
T was a perfect dayFor sowing; justAs sweet and dry was the groundAs tobacco-dust. I tasted deep the hourBetween the farOwl's chuckling first soft cryAnd the first star. A long stretched hour it was;Nothing undoneRemained; the early seedsAll safely sown. And now, hark at the rain,Windless and light,Half a kiss, half a tear,Saying good-night.
