Dusk At Sea

To-night eternity alone is near:
   The sea, the sunset, and the darkening blue;
Within their shelter is no space for fear,
   Only the wonder that such things are true.

The thought of you is like the dusk at sea --
   Space and wide freedom and old shores left far,
The shelter of a lone immensity
   Sealed by the sunset and the evening star.
