As darkness falls

Patrick Cardy

As darkness falls and the mists melt away,

the mourning soul of the glittering green sea

raises itself in fabulous white veils of foam,

as darkness falls and the mists melt away.

The gulls dip their feathers in the night water,

and behold, the mourning soul of the glittering

green sea rejoices in the vast night,

as darkness falls and the mists melt away.
