Poem A Day

Classic poem

Fragment: 'Unrisen Splendour of the Brightest Sun'

by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Unrisen splendour of the brightest sun,

To rise upon our darkness, if the star

Now beckoning thee out of thy misty throne

Could thaw the clouds which wage an obscure war

With thy young brightness!
