Carl Sandburg / Monotone

Ever So Graceful Release
Photography by Diana Verner

Carl Sandburg
MONOTONE

The monotone of the rain is beautiful,
And the sudden rise and slow relapse
Of the long multitudinous rain.

The sun on the hills is beautiful,
Or a captured sunset, sea-flung,
Bannered with fire and gold.

A face I know is beautiful
With fire and gold of sky and sea,
And the peace of long war rain.
