Charles Baudelaire,
Poems of Charles Baudelaire — Sunset
(1906)
“ Fair is the sun when first he flames above, Flinging his joy down in a happy beam; And happy he who can salute with love The sunset far more glorious than a dream. Flower, stream, and furrow!—I have seen them all In the sun’s eye swoon like one trembling heart— Though it be late let us with speed depart To catch at least one ray ere it fall! ”
