The Morning Drum-Call On My Eager Ear

Title:     The Morning Drum-Call On My Eager Ear
Author: Robert Louis Stevenson [More Titles by Stevenson]

THE morning drum-call on my eager ear
Thrills unforgotten yet; the morning dew
Lies yet undried along my field of noon.

But now I pause at whiles in what I do,
And count the bell, and tremble lest I hear
(My work untrimmed) the sunset gun too soon.

[The end]
Robert Louis Stevenson's poem: Morning Drum-call On My Eager Ear
