Fooled by a warm winter,
Plants turn on the green
And launch hopeful sprouts,
Only to get caught between
A false interlude of spring,
And the killing cold the next

Far Out (By Philip Larkin)
Beyond the bright cartoons
Are darker spaces where
Small cloudy nests of stars
Seem to float on the air.

Men out alone at night
Never look up at them
For guidance or delight.
For such evasive dust
Can make so little clear:
Much less is known than not,
More far than near.
