Marking Rhyme
So near her fullest grand spanning power
Was the flower zenith moon of May
Trying like hell to be as bright as day
Around about the midnight hour
When she threw a shadow on the dial
Meant to track the hours of the sun
When solar power dazzles everyone,
In Diurnality worthwhile,
Best exemplified by unhampered rays
On which those garden dials rely
To indicate time flying by
From sunny days to lunar phase...
But only when the skies are clear
Will all the telltale shades appear!
Was the flower zenith moon of May

Meant to track the hours of the sun
When solar power dazzles everyone,
In Diurnality worthwhile,
Best exemplified by unhampered rays
On which those garden dials rely
To indicate time flying by
From sunny days to lunar phase...
But only when the skies are clear
Will all the telltale shades appear!
