A PICTURE, by ARTHUR CREW INMAN Poet's Biography First Line: Long surges of the summer sea Last Line: Lulled in eternal sleep. Subject(s): Sea; Ocean | ||||||||
Long surges of the summer sea Merge in the mists of beyond; And swaying seagulls lazily drift And cry to cry respond. Long stretches of the spray-flung coast Whiten the grayish sea And moan to softly-tinted woods In solemn lethargy. Long spaces of the cloud-hung sky Float in the azure deep -- And creep away in crowded heaps, Lulled in eternal sleep. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HALL OF OCEAN LIFE by JOHN HOLLANDER JULY FOURTH BY THE OCEAN by ROBINSON JEFFERS BOATS IN A FOG by ROBINSON JEFFERS CONTINENT'S END by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE FIGUREHEAD by LEONIE ADAMS |
