The Night Ways Are Coming (From New Waves To The Shore) Poem by Peter S. Quinn

O children of the sea and deep water
Your eye stones are like moons on a glow
Where are now the clouds drifting sky's daughter
With sunshine melting footsteps in the snow
A day has come once more in its flower
With morning clear in their undercover
Like burning stars were here to empower
Seashore and sky ring live-in lover

The night ways are coming in its empire
Down to the fibers and roots hidden most
In winter singing at the highest branch
To quench out the autumn's coloring fire
That to leaves had gone like rusty roast
And give their appearance - very last chance
