NOONTIME
[ Also see Midnight ]

A silence, the brief Sabbath of an hour,
  Reigns o'er the fields; the laborer sits within
    His dwelling; he has left his steers awhile,
      Unyoked, to bite the herbage, and his dog
        Sleeps stretched beside the door-stone in the shade.
          Now the gray marmot, with uplifted paws,
            No more sits listening by his den, but steals
              Abroad, in safety, to the clover-field,
                And crops its juicy-blossoms.
      - William Cullen Bryant
