until day is full

Â
Consciousness stirs at hint of day
memories and dreams the light doth sway
restful sleep, disturb it may
the birds' song cracks all slumber
air-tight lids to keep out light
cannot maintain eternal night
the futile struggle to dampen sight
a sense not easy to cumber
dreams are wondrous; or so they feel
refuting, distorting what is real
but to the light the dark must heel
Lustrous day takes over umber
