"My hope rides on the return of the light / Like the bet of a gambler on a horse"
Transcendental Sonnet #1184:
Sundown
Sundown at four forty-seven today
Yesterday it came at four forty-six
A minute a day the light drinks away
The waters at the riverbank of Styx
My hope rides on the return of the light
Like the bet of a gambler on a horse
But this bet is sure I know that the night
Will yield to the light I know that the course
Of natural events like this is plain
I guess I just want it to take my pain
Away as day advances night recedes
I guess I am just an old gambler who
Is fool enough to bet again who needs
To hope a little as I wait for you
