At Sunset.

Red skies above a level land
And thoughts of thee:
Sinking sun on reedy strand.
And alder tree.
Only the heron sailing home,
With heavy flight;
Ocean afar in silent foam,
And coming night.
Dwindling dav and browsing birds,
o my child!
Dimness and returning herds.
Memory wild.
Stephen Philips.
