“Cast"

Just beyond the blocks and blocks of solid salted rocks and
seas and ships and many masts and ageless gulls and flocks,
a loving lantern light has cast in two the stars in black and bathed
them in a summer's glow that too few pairs of people know, in fact,

The gentle pace of conversation in easy ebb and flow and the not-too
distant sound of crashing above the undertow may convince us that
we've long been blessed, and to fairly count ourselves possessed of

Greatest fortune to witness, with liberty god's best and brightest views,
and to turn ourselves in blinding night, and to follow morning's gentle
hues to steal the beams of breaking light from nature's epic window.
