Excerpt from The Sea: And Other Poems
A great portion of this volume was com posed, and the whole of it prepared for the press, during a winter sojourn in the South of France. An obstinate attack of bronchitis and general debility rendered it necessary that I should seek a warmer climate. Debarred from the privilege of speaking, and forbidden to oc cupy my mind in much reading or study, I found the quiet hours passed in the preparation pleasant, and, I trust, profitable to my own mind. None of the poems have any merit. They are very simple and unpretentious.

You will find within these pages expressions of joy, fear, wonder, and awe as the author contemplates themes of life, death, and faith, while onboard ship and ashore. These simple and unassuming poems offer surprisingly rich insights into the complexities of humanity, spirituality, and the author's personal experiences, with the all-powerful and sublime sea a constant backdrop.
