George Edward Woodberry

The North Shore Watch and Other Poems. George Edward Woodberry

First dead of all my dead that are to be, Who at lifes flush with me wast wont to roam The pine-fringed borders of this surging sea, From far and lonely lands Love brings me home To this wide waters foam ; H ere thou art fallen in thy joyful days, Life quenched within thy breast, light in thy eyes; And darkly from thy ruined beauty rise These flowerless myrtle-sprays; The hills we trod enfold thee evermore, The gray and sleepless sea breaks round the orphaned shore.
