THE SEA BUBBLE by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: YEA, A BUBBLE THOUGH I BE
Last Line: TIME-BLOOMS ON ETERNITY.
Subject(s): LOVE;

Yea, a bubble though I be,
Love, O man, that fashioned thee
Of the dust created me

Not of earth, but of the sea:
Kindred blossoms then are we --
Time-blooms on eternity.
