The Salt Marsh

The Salt Marsh
Up the long, shallow, winding way
The rising tide comes dimpling,
sparkling,
Among tall grass where the fresh
breezes sing
Their lit of shoal and wave and
spray.
Slowly the channels brim. The sap
phire sky
Dyes deeper blue the cleaning
white-capped waste
The marsh is sweet with bracing
tang and taste
OF windiblown, tonic salt-the tide is
high. Mabel Stanwood.
