"Spindrift its evanescent beauty flings Into the glad, glad wind - the silver breath Of beauty-haunted waves that seek their death Along the sands where the grey, lonely wings Of sea-birds sweep, And where the ageless deep Breathes its eternal tumult, moaning low With the long urge of its moon-maddened tides Reaching in hunger up the naked sides Of windy dunes, and when its waters glow Under the moon's elusive traceries, It flings its silver spindrift to the skies. The moon of Beauty draws the tides in me, Moon-gathered tides of an immortal quest, Along the golden strand of Poetry; The waters of my spirit seeking rest Break wave on wave their hungry hearts, and fling Glad spinrift to the windy arch of sky, And spend their strength - so the swift songs I Sing Are but the spindrift of mad waves that cry Within my heart - spindrift of waves that die." - from page 15.
