SHORE-SPELL, by RICHARD CALLAN First Line: A spell is woven Last Line: Only the rugged pine trees know. Subject(s): Seashore; Wind; Beach; Coast; Shore | |||
A spell is woven Over the land Where ocean breezes Sing through pines, And rollers pound the sand. An incantation Wild and clear, By master mesmerist Pronounced, Constraining all who hear. A charm that lasts, Ceaseless, sublime, Until this world, A speck in space, Is blotted out by time. But what the winds say When they blow, Only the rugged pine trees know. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SEASHORE by JOHN FREDERICK NIMS EASTERN LONG ISLAND by MARVIN BELL THE WIND IS BLOWING WEST by JOSEPH CERAVOLO IF SOMETHING SHOULD HAPPEN by LUCILLE CLIFTON THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER EMPTIES INTO THE GULF by LUCILLE CLIFTON GEOGRAPHY AS WARNING by MADELINE DEFREES POWER FAILURE by MADELINE DEFREES CONTRA MORTEM: THE BEING AS VISION by HAYDEN CARRUTH |
