SONGS OF THE SEA CHILDREN: 53 by BLISS CARMAN

First Line: I THINK THE SUN WHEN HE TURNS AT NIGHT
Last Line: THAT THEY CAN SLEEP SO STILL.
Subject(s): WIND; SUN;
I think the sun when he turns at night,
And lays his face against the sea's,
Must have such thoughts as these.
I think the wind, when he wakes at dawn,
Must wonder, seeing hill by hill,
That they can sleep so still.
