Nature

Shore Grass

by Amy Lowell 1874–1925

From Pictures of the Floating World (1919): Planes of Personality

Nature

The moon is cold over the sand-dunes,

And the clumps of sea-grasses flow and glitter;

The thin chime of my watch tells the quarter after midnight;

And still I hear nothing
But the windy beating of the sea.
