Fog

Kathryn White Ryan

THE SEA is a meadow, pale meadow of silence

Where flowers are blooming, white flowers of sound.

And deep in the petals, the pale listless petals,

Lost ships fumble grumbling, with blindness half crazy.

Does He muse, the Creator, as He peers in the vapor?-

“So bumble bees trouble the heart of the daisy.”
