Sand-Piper
 
Across the narrow beach we flit,
  One little sand-piper and I;
And fast I gather, bit by bit,
  The scattered drift-wood, bleached and dry,
The wild waves reach their hands for it,
  The wild wind raves, the tide runs high,
As up and down the beach we flit,
  One little sand-piper and I.
        Celia Thaxter—The Sand-Piper.
