The Difference

BY EDWARD A. JENKS

It may have been a dream—but beautiful at first:I found myself upon a breezy eminenceAt sunrise; and the hill was one great flashing opalIn the bright morning sun, blushing resplendentlyBeneath his passionate June kisses; and the oaksThat crowned the hill stretched out their glist'ning, pleadingarmsFor more—and more—and more.

Sonnet

William Lyman Johnson
