The sun shone brightly on the green <br />The greenest green I'd ever seen <br />The sun seemed brighter than before <br />The sea slow lapping on the shore <br />My eyes did see such lovely things <br />Then closed as my imaginings <br />Went calmly back to whence they came <br />And would not ever see again......<br /><br />David Keig<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/requiem-4/
