Water of sea-green, Lift up your white fingers of sea-foam And cast this broken mast upon the shore. It was once, you know, One of a fleet that made A dense forest upon your watery hills. And now in tenderness, You cast it upon the rocky shores It one time knew in its lost youth. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PEACE ON EARTH by EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON THE FLOWER OF BEAUTY by GEORGE DARLEY HOMAGE TO THE BRITISH MUSEUM by WILLIAM EMPSON MIDWINTER BLUES by JAMES LANGSTON HUGHES MY LITTLE DREAMS by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON THE GODS OF THE COPYBOOK HEADINGS by RUDYARD KIPLING THE GIRL OF ALL PERIODS; AN IDYLL by COVENTRY KERSEY DIGHTON PATMORE |
