The Sun

Prying voyeur Shining eye of heaven, Why but this assunder? Why call on our amorous souls From the romance of silent night By your glint throu' chunks and curtains? Peeping Tom Herald of waking dawn Like a sexton calling sleepers For morning prayer; Why flash throu' the irises Of our courting eyes? Oh morning! I weep to see you come so soon In the company of this voyeuristic sun.
