At the Sea-Side by Robert Louis Stevenson


At the Sea-Side

BY ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON


When I was down beside the sea
A wooden spade they gave to me
   To dig the sandy shore.
My holes were empty like a cup.
In every hole the sea came up
   Till it could come no more.



Enchanting and delightful. A link to read more is here. http://www.poetryfoundation.org/bio/robert-louis-stevenson
