The bounding main is stormless tonight. The tide remains full, the night's eye patent Upon the straits;--on the east coast the bright Light shines and vanishes; the mountains against The winds needn't shake at their foundations tonight. So come hither, Dear, to the casement new & clear, Where I can close my arms around you and breathe In your lovely air -rocking, swaying to the rhythm Of the Romantic guitar, in this peace, in this moment, Which has bound me to this sphere that ne'er shall cease To revolve around us on an axis of loving-kindness untl When we ascend to the heavens upon wings & prayers.

Upon Wings And Prayers
The bounding main is stormless tonight. The tide remains full, the night's eye patent Upon the straits;--on the east coast the bright Light shines and vanishes; the mountains against The winds needn't shake at their foundations tonight. So come hither, Dear, to the casement new & clear, Where I can close my arms around you and breathe In your lovely air -rocking, swaying to the rhythm Of the Romantic guitar, in this peace, in this moment, Which has bound me to this sphere that ne'er shall cease To revolve around us on an axis of loving-kindness untl When we ascend to the heavens upon wings & prayers.
