The Morning Pool

All night the pool held mysteries,
  Vague depths of night that lay in dream,
Where phantoms of the pale-white stars
  Wandered, with darkness-tangled gleam.

And now it holds the limpid light
  And shadeless azure of the skies,
Wherein, like some enclaspèd gem,
  The morning’s golden glamour lies.
