THE CARIBBEAN SEA.

Drift by in all the forms you take,
o great cosmogony of clouds!
The fingers of the winds awake
Fit music in the shrouds.
AS waters slip along the kee,
From stem to stern, the hours slip by.
What weight they have I do not feel,
Nor note them as they fly.
The east is touched with pink and gray,
The lifts up his glorious head,
Both and sky at close of day
Are double dyed with red.
And every day is opal fair
With rainbow hues both bright and clear.
If mermaid singeth anywhere
She surely sngeth here.
