Severus Alexander

Wandering

Set out with strong helm

Brave the lovely, living sea

Journey home again

~

Look up at the sun

See the shining, sunset sea

Wonder where, or when

~

Stand upon the beach

Look at waves, listen, gulls cry

Draw lines in the sand

~

Walk out far, and stay

Think of sleep, and murmur glad

Settle, final rest

~

Into open sky

I looked and beheld morning

Spread wings, flew away
