Explore "A Noon-Song (of Skies and Seasons)" by Henry Van Dyke on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
There are songs for the morning and songs for the night, / For sunrise and sunset, the stars and the moon; / But who will give praise to the fulness of light, / And sing us a song of the glory of noon?
Oh, the high noon, the clear noon, / The noon with golden crest; / When the blue sky burns, and the great sun turns / With his face to the way of the west!
