(sonnet # MMMMMMMDCCXXXVIII)
Ere morning \'gins to warm the black night\'s dense
Void hearken: robins sing beyond the veil
(And these new concrete walls) of dawn. Those pale
First hints of Sunday like on tiptoe hence
Grow slowly stronger; how orange fringes thence
Soft blue, the city lights half dimmed, and they\'ll
Assure me they are singing like t\'avail.
Now day shifts t\'ward a yawn I\'m tired, for sense.
Read Pooh Bear, to find \'gain what we as t\'were
Had taen for granted, as the world we knew
Was shaped thereby afore we spelled in tour
Our names and which day t\'was. Skies brighten through
The minutes of my sleepy watch and stir
Faint hopes I\'ll soon find rest, that I\'d see You.
