Welcome to Litsy!

Excerpt from Sydney at Sunset: And Other Verses It hides the slopes where sunlight lingered last, It overspreads the trees, Finding and folding all the beauty fast By slow and soft degrees. No more the western heaven gleams and The gold turns grey. A star Breaks through the darkness. Dim the grows, And dim the waters are. But there beyond the water lies the town, Her windows jewel-bright, Sydney, on whom both sun and stars look down With so much love and light.
