    Here’s to the day when it is May
  And care as light as a feather,
When your little shoes and my big boots
  Go tramping over the heather.
          A Toast.

    There paused to shut the door
  A fellow called the Wind,
With mystery before,
  And reticence behind.
          At the granite Gate.
3
    The glad indomitable sea,
  The strong white sun.
          A Sea Child.
