Sea-gardens—Avalon

Lucy Eddy

From “Valley and Mesa”

SEA-WIND, sea-wind,

Gently go—

Over the sapphire waters

Where anemones glow,

On the crest of the waves

Where the foam-flowers blow—

Soft as light,

White as snow.

Sea-wind, sea-wind,

Softly sing;

For the water-bells lightly

Bubble and ring;

Where the golden kelp-weeds

Curl and swing,

And a flying-fish,

On gauzy wing,

Whirs

Glistening.
