THE SEA WHISPER.
N the sandy beach I sate,
The dark weed round me strown,
Listening to the wind that brought
Its hollow message, lone—
A whisper from the sea,
And what it said to me.
The dark weed round me strown,
Listening to the wind that brought
Its hollow message, lone—
A whisper from the sea,
And what it said to me.
On the glistening, fading shore
Were thrown in careless heap,
Shells and flowers of the sea,
Sweet offspring of the deep;
Still I listened to the wind that brought
The whisper of the sea,
And what it said to me.
Were thrown in careless heap,
Shells and flowers of the sea,
Sweet offspring of the deep;
Still I listened to the wind that brought
The whisper of the sea,
And what it said to me.
A voice I heard from every shell,
In whispers softly come;
In whispers softly come;
