A Winter Piece

Title:     A Winter Piece
Author: Bliss Carman [More Titles by Carman]

Over the rim of a lacquered bowl,
Where a cold blue water-color stands,
I see the wintry breakers roll
And heave their froth up the freezing sands.

Here in immunity safe and dull,
Soul treads her circuit of trivial things.
There soul's brother, a shining gull,
Dares the rough weather on dauntless wings.

[The end]
Bliss Carman's poem: Winter Piece
