Arthur Seymour John Tessimond Sea Poems
- 1. Bells, Pool And Sleep
Bells overbrim with sound
And spread from cupolas
Out through the shaking air
Endless unbreaking circles
... - 2. Sea
1
(Windless Summer)
Between the glass panes of the sea are pressed
... - 3. Day Dream
One day people will touch and talk perhaps
easily,
And loving be natural as breathing and warm as
sunlight,
... - 4. Seaport
Green sea-tarnished copper
And sea-tarnished gold
Of cupolas.
... - 5. Music
This shape without space,
This pattern without stuff,
This stream without dimension
Surrounds us, flows through us,
... - 6. One Day
People will touch and talk perhaps easily,
And loving be natural as breathing,
And warm as sunlight;
... - 7. Cinema Screen
Light's patterns freeze:
Frost on our faces.
Light's pollen sifts
Through the lids of our eyes ...
...
