Excerpt from The Crow's Nest: And Other Poems
Over the wondrous siren deep I sail with never a time for sleep; I hear the winds in the rigging howl; I see in the West the tempest scowl; But I trust my soul may the vigil keep! Still awake? I cry, And the loud reply All's well! From the crow's nest.
Over the oily, satin sea, When the zephyrs blow caressingly, On the flowing lights is a copper sheen, And the white clouds drift on the hyaline, 'tis a fairy ship on a painted sea! 'tis a dream! I cry, And the soft reply All's well! From the crow 's nest.
