To Daisies, Not to Shut So SoonRobert Herrick (1591–1674)
S
Has not as yet begun
To make a seizure on the light,
Or to seal up the sun.
No shadows great appear;
Nor doth the early shepherd’s star
Shine like a spangle here.
Her life-begetting eye,
And let the whole world then dispose
Itself to live or die.
