SAND & SPRAY: SEA-SYMPHONY. 2. VARIATIONS: 4. THE GULLS by JOHN GOULD FLETCHER

First Line: WHITE STARS SCATTERING
Last Line: IN A NOISELESS FLIGHT, FAR OUT ACROSS THE SKY.
Subject(s): BIRDS; GULLS; SEAGULLS;
Molto Allegro

White stars scattering,
Pale rain of spray-drops,
Delicate flash of smoke wind-drifted low and high,
Silver upon dark purple,
The gulls quiver
In a noiseless flight, far out across the sky.
