Poem: La Mer

Poem: La Mer

 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址A white mist drifts across the shrouds,

A wild moon in this wintry sky

Gleams like an angry lion's eye

Out of a mane of tawny clouds.

 

The muffled steersman at the wheel

上海龙凤shlf最新地址Is but a shadow in the gloom; -

上海龙凤shlf最新地址And in the throbbing engine-room

Leap the long rods of polished steel.

 

The shattered storm has left its trace

Upon this huge and heaving dome,

上海龙凤shlf最新地址For the thin threads of yellow foam

Float on the waves like ravelled lace.
