Good Morning

Why, there's the morning and get-up-o'clock!
The dream-dewed freshness and the keen delight-
Do you remember? There-those ashes were
Our fire last night; the sun is laughing at them.
Look in the valley where we passed before-
You see-that little winding of the road?
The selfsame, big, important yesterday
That seemed so steep and threatening a hill!
Come, let us bathe and break the fast and start!
