GRISELDA OF THE SEAS, by AMY REDPATH RODDICK First Line: Pale arrowy lights were in her eyes Last Line: Was I like her divine? Subject(s): Sea; Women; Ocean | ||||||||
Pale arrowy lights were in her eyes, Griselda of the Seas: I saw her in a boat one night, Her hair blown by the breeze. A sheenful moon shot glory round, Its glamour rayed her face, She was illumined like some rare sight, Immortal in her grace. I gazed on her with tremulous heart Until those eyes met mine, A mystic smile rebuked my fear: Was I like her divine? | 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 |
