A poem by Isabel Ecclestone Mackay

The Watcher

________________________________________________
Title:     The Watcher
Author: Isabel Ecclestone Mackay [More Titles by Mackay]

THE long road and the low shore, a sail against the sky,
The ache in my heart's core, and hope so hard to die--
Ah me, but the day's long--and all the sails go by!

The long road and the dark shore, pools with stars aflame,
The ache in my heart's core, the hope I dare not name--
Ah, me, but the night's long--and every night the same!






[The end]
Isabel Ecclestone Mackay's poem: Watcher
