SHORT BEACH
OH, the salt wind in my nostrils!And the white sail in the creek!And the blue beyond the marshes!And the flag at the peak!
My soul lifts to the buglesOf a far cry on the breeze —The cry of my storm-kin callingOverseas, overseas!
Blow, horns of the old sea-rapture!When your call comes from afar.I would rise from the grave to reach youWhere the sea-dooms are!
July, 1898.
