Flame and Shadow
"Oh Day of Fire and Sun"

by Sara Teasdale

Oh day of fire and sun, 
Pure as a naked flame, 
Blue sea, blue sky and dun 
Sands where he spoke my name; 

Laughter and hearts so high 
That the spirit flew off free, 
Lifting into the sky 
Diving into the sea; 

Oh day of fire and sun 
Like a crystal burning, 
Slow days go one by one, 
But you have no returning.
