The tide flows in to the harbor- The bold tide, the gold tide, the hood
 of the sunlit sea s4-- And the little ships riding at anchor Are swinging and slanting their prows
 to the ocean. panting To hit their wings to the wild wide air And venture voyage they now not To fly away and be free! The tide runs out of the harbor- The slow tide, the low tide, the cob
 of the moonlit bay And the little ships rocking at anchor Are rounding and turning their bows
 to the landward. yearning To breathe the breath of the warm
 sweet strand And rest in the sight of the high hill To hold their haven and stay! My heart goes out with the vessels My wild heart. my child heart, in
 love with the sea and land And the turn O the tide passes
 through it, sts Tn rising and falling with mystical
 currents, calling
 At morn to range where the far waves At night to a haTbor in loves true home,
 With the hearts that understand. Henry van Dyke.
