“With these I would be.
And with water: the waves coming forward, without cessation,
The waves, altered by sand-bars, beds of kelp, miscellaneous
driftwood,
Topped by cross-winds, tugged at by sinuous undercurrents
The tide rustling in, sliding between the ridges of stone,
The tongues of water, creeping in, quietly.”
—Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
“There is the empty chapel, only the wind’s home.
It has no windows, and the door swings,
Dry bones can harm no one.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
