NEXT GENERATION
The school goes down to bathe, And then not two or three But sixty boys at once Run shouting to the sea. Two tides are meeting there, A tide of salt and spray And one of human life Whose end Is far away. Bright harvests has the sea, And in that tide of youth Bright harvests may be hid, New power, art, and truth. Good fishing for the world. New blessings may there be Before that happy tide Becomes an ebbing sea. —j.r.
