I Reel on this Slope of Stones

I reel on this slope of stones,

Lying on the shorn shale.

I see the stark, staring stern,

Wall, of the world’s bones,

And wonder at the gale.


I reel on this stony slope,

Lying on the shorn shale,

I see the stark, staring, stern, wall of the Worlds bone.

I, wait here for human step,

I, wait here alone.


I lie at the side of the sea,

The gulls fly high, looking at me.

I see the foam, white, crash against the shale,

I see a wondrous sight! A ship, for me.

And I knew that God was behind the gale.
