On the beach at night, alone

after the whistling winds

Below a myriad waves, hastening,

undulating waves,

waves of the ocean

On the beach at night, alone,

as the old mother sways her to and fro

singing her husky song,

as I watch the bright stars shining

Waves of the ocean,

bubbling and gurgling, blithely prying,

Waves, laughing and buoyant

O soul

thoughts, silent thoughts,

of Time and Space and Death,

like waters flowing,

Bear me indeed as through

regions infinite
