Daybreak!

Shine bright, moonlight, before you set  
And briefly mingle with dawn's early light  
That final glow of empyrean night  
The likes of which I can't soon forget...  
Even as I welcome the rising sun  
Trailing the plunge of your westward drift  
By antemeridian...lullaby lift...  
Declaring another Earth umbrage done!  
And with Morpheus too, you well conspire,  
With the last of your sinking beams,  
To place my soul in odd sundry dreams  
Safe from Apollo's diurnal fire...  
So the midnight mind may soon recover  
The wits to watch you once again hover!
