Oceanus
To my soul.
Sit down b’side me —that I might sing
A ballad of a maiden fair
'Twas b’neath the misty moon of spring
Sojourn on earth —my earthly stare
She drift’d on beams of midnight’s gleam
Her soul a swollen trunk
Her treasures vast —so tells the lore
Her lapping waves beseech’d the shore.
'Twas my feet —that she met
As she wash’d upon the shore
'Twas my feet —that she ador’d
My soul at sea —forevermore.
