Rocks

Mary Eastwood Knevels

THROUGH the pasture lie the rocks, gray as the sea in a fog,

As the sea in a mist.

(O breath of my yearning, O sea, breaking gray in a fog!)

The rocks rise tumultuous, the rocks are waves.

Flee from them, they are in pursuit;

Lichen-crusted their summits, rolling most mightily.

Flee from the rocks, the pale-crested waves of the meadows!
