Good Morning Midnight
I’m coming Home
Day got tired of Me
How could I of Him?
Sunshine was a sweet place
I liked to stay
But Morn didn’t want me now
So Goodnight Day!
I can look can’t I
When the East is Red?
The Hills have a way then
That puts the Heart abroad
You are not so fair Midnight
I chose Day
But please take a little Girl
He turned away!

The Wind is hiding in the trees, A sighing, soothing, laughing tease, Until the rose says “Kiss me, please,” ‘Tis morning, ’tis morning. With staff in hand and careless-free, The wanderer fares right […]...

Ere rivers league against the land In piratry of flood, Ye […]...
