By the Sea

I'm at La Jolla, by the sea !;
the view is something fine, with
large blue pillows rolling free
FIVE thousand miles of brine.
The grand old ocean is my lawn,
it slops against my door; no
dandelions grow theron, to make
my spirit sore. The water
booms into the caves. reminding
me of this: | do not have to
NOW the waves, and such a
thought is bliss. | see the bill
lows, high and dark, the endless
surge and swell: see the seals,
and hear them bark, as though
they'd things to sell. And !
could sit and watch the sea one
thousand years or two. and
every hour 'twould bring to me
some message strange and new.
It's saying, as it sighs and raves,
and murmurs, means and pleads,
You do not have to NOW my
waves. or from me dig the
weeds" The salt sea sloshes
round my coop, and sharks come
up and play, and | sit out. upon
the stoop, and smile the livelong
day. I've always had a lawn to
NOV, and weeds to dig at night !;
no sandburs on the ocean grow,
to mar my chaste delight.
