Sea

By Robert J. Roe


From “A Sailor's Note-book” I SEA is dumb fellow,
Which don’t know what he wants
Un is not happy.

II Sea is wie bucket full with gold-dust,
Un ship is little piece of dirt	5
What Somebody would snap out pretty soon
With His finger.

III Sea is still
Wie God was asleep.
Sometimes he breathes very slow.	10
