From The Cadenced Roar Of The Waves. Poem by Rosalia de Castro

From The Cadenced Roar Of The Waves.



From the cadenced roar of the waves
and the wail of the wind,
from the shimmering light
flecked over woodland and cloud,
from the cries of passing birds
and the wild unknown perfumes
stolen by zephyrs
from mountaintops and valleys,
there are realms where souls
crushed by the weight of the world
find refuge.
