Across the singing waves the shadows creep. - [Shadows] One golden day redeems a weary year. - [Compensation] Peacefully The quiet stars came out, one after one; The holy twilight fell upon the sea, The summer day was done. - [Twilight] The summer's songs are hushed. Up the lone shore The weary waves wash sadly, and a grief Sounds in the wind, like farewells fond and brief: The cricket's chirp but makes the silence more. - [Twilight] Graceful, tossing plume of glowing gold, Waving lonely on the rocky ledge; Leaning seaward, lovely to behold, Clinging to the high cliff's ragged edge. - Seaside Goldenrod [Goldenrods] Dear little head, that lies in calm content Within the gracious hollow that God made In every human shoulder, where He meant Some tired head for comfort should be laid. - Song [Contentment] Across the narrow beach we flit, One little sand-piper and I; And fast I gather, bit by bit. The scattered drift-wood, bleached and dry, The wild waves reach their hands for it.
