The Moonwuzo’s Sea-Song
Who is that walking on the dark sea sand?
The old Bride of the Wind
What is that staring out of the weedy pool?
The newborn Monster in its caul
What is that eerie chanting from the foam?
The mermaids’ gardening song
What is that shadow floating on the water?
The Fish-King’s daughter
Who bears those candles down by the Sea’s curled rim?
The children going home
from Old Merlaine
“Miss Jessamine”
Poem from Old Merlaine, published by William Heinemann
Maybe I should have put this in my blog on October 31st.
