The Neap Quieter than sleep comes the neap With silver threads weaving the seem The weight of the moon moves the reap It’s there I awake from the dream In bed near a windows sill I Stare at the leaves and background clouds The clouds are dressing colors fill Yet the message speaks clear and loud My mind is waking to the day And I prepare to meet its store There are things to do, things to say And I must do my daily chore Each day the wonders pass me bye But never stop to shake my hand They only pull from me a sigh The wonders of this Eden’s land Some how I’ll join the leaves at play For I’ve a ticket on Santa’s sleigh |

I also had to look up neap. This poem wonderfully written. Thank you for expanding my knowledge on the english language, and for sharing this poem to me and to the world. Poetry is just the evidence of life. |
