look, stranger, on this island now! - peter dickinson lyrics

Loading...

look, stranger, on this island now
the leaping light for your delight discovers
stand stable here
and silent be
that through the channels of the ear
may wander like a river
the swaying sound of the sea

here at a small field’s ending pause
where the chalk wall falls to the foam and its tall ledges
oppose the pluck
and knock of the tide
and the shingle scrambles after the suck*
*ing surf
and a gull lodges
a moment on its sheer sidе

far off like floating seeds the ships
divergе on urgent voluntary errands
and this full view
indeed may enter
and move in memory as now these clouds do
that pass the harbour mirror
and all the summer through the water saunter

- peter dickinson lyrics
