Explore "A Little Window: Surety" by Jean M. Snyder on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
/ I needed the dawn, but / My eyes beheld only clouds / And a valley filled with mists / And a mountain shutting out the east.
I needed the dawn, so / I could but wait.
Surely, / Slowly / Through the clouds / The light came, / Like a presence / Dispelling mist and cloud: / Even the mountain / Could not hide it.
My eyes beheld all clear, / And in the roseate glow, / Like a diamond, / Hung the morning star.
