A TROPICAL MORNING AT SEA
Edward Rowland Sill
Crests that touch and tilt each other
Jostling as they comb;
Delicate crash of tinkling water,
Broken in pearling foam.
Off to the East the steady sun-track
Golden meshes fill —
Webs of fire, that lace and tangle,
Never a moment still.
Sea depths, blue as the blue of violets —
Blue as a summer sky,
When you blink at its arch sprung over
Where in the grass you lie.
Thinned to amber, rimmed with silver,
Clouds in the distance dwell.
Clouds that are cool, for all their color.
Pure as a rose-lipped shell.
