SEA MEADOWS, by                    
First Line: I love all meadows
Last Line: Reaching to the sea.
Subject(s): Fields; Pastures; Meadows; Leas


I love all meadows,
But I long to be
Near tawny meadows
Running to the sea;

Stretching their broad arms
To enfold once more
The shy, restless waves
That creep to the shore.

Great tawny meadows
Swirled by every breeze,
Greenish-gold meadows
Barren of all trees.

Sheltered from the reach
Of disturbing hands,
Mysterious and moist,
Wild, untrodden lands.

Rose-hued, lush meadows,
At the sunset hour
Holding for the sea
A rich, secret dower.

Marshy wide meadows
On whose broad sweep
Tiny waves creep in
To rest and sleep.

I love all meadows
But I long to be
Near tawny meadows
Reaching to the sea.
