Far, far away one mystery greets Another vast and high, The infinite of waters meets The infinite of sky. The stars are singing hymns of calm Above the sea's unrest; Can ever that majestic psalm Dwell in the ocean's breast? What far horizon dim and low The sweet solution finds, Where earth's tumultuous yearnings know The peace of heavenly minds? And still the sky's imperial grace The tossing ocean mars; We cannot see the meeting-place, But we can see the stars. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EASTER by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES THE DEAD MISTRESS by CHARLES BAUDELAIRE WHEN GOD WEARIED by WILLIAM ROSE BENET PSALM 20.
