BIRTH OF DAY
The undertones of dark Stand clear against the dawn, As earth rolls into light At punctual dawn. Each tiny twig a-flash, Each branch a lighted way Of golden crystals bright To guido the feet of day. Slowly the quiet glow Tip-toes across the earth, Telling tho world once moro Of day's continuous birth, —Elsie A. Koefoed, in the Christian Science Monitor.
