Hypnos, God of Sleep
written by Adelaide Crapsey
Source: Verse, Adelaide Crapsey, New York, N.Y: Alfred A. Knopf, 1922 Link to further information


The shadowy boy of night
   Crosses the dusking land;
He sows his poppy-seeds
   With steady gentle hand.

The shadowy boy of night,
   Young husbandman of dreams,
Garners his gracious blooms
   By far and moonlit streams.
