The Open Sea |
| Passing on the water’s edge |
| And wrinkling some time |
| You set your mind on moving along. |
| Pacing forth with pant-less breath |
| In the shade of the shadow-less palms— |
| Gold pastures of dawn— |
| O, the open sea … |
| Though the tides are new and high |
| Your eyes are anchored still to some old ideas |
| And some effortless tricks |
| That comfort you and hold you |
| While the fleas and flies still bite |
| Like the salty air on steel |
| O, what do you still feel? |
| Passing from the water’s edge |
| And tending the lines |
| You set your mind on moving along. |
| For well beyond the breakers' crash |
| Harvests of the blue horizon’s loom |
| Will offer a new and open sea |
| That weaves the stars and deep— |
| Reasons for our faith— |
| As the currents state and set to reveal |
| O, what you do still feel! |
| They’ll comfort you and carry you |
| Where the aging canvas fills |
| And the salty air you’ll feel… |
