The comments of the ocean Blend nicely with the brush Of tipper topper dinky dinghies That paddle all a hush Ships sailing on the summer current Keels are black and leery With barnacles and treasures trawled at sea They nose ahead worn and weary I sigh a little on the plinth of my palm Propped nicely 'gainst the ivory table And clink ****** cups, you know Those little things that make you remember Shame? Not me. When I watch the birds They hover without shame Boasting of the clouds they've visited And castles up high they are welcome to Take, take, take the spring breeze that simmers in I couldn't feel the grace of disgust I couldn't, I'm too happy With salt ground tea and seemly company.
