What siren-song arises <br />From the sweet silver bosom of the sea <br />By the three rocks? <br /> <br />No human eyes to watch <br />No human eyes to see <br /> <br />And yet <br />The elfin forms in dwindling shadows dance <br />And then <br />Of sudden the shadows grow <br />As in a trance. <br /> <br />What siren-song ariseth <br />From the weary sea, the funereal dirge <br />Of mariners lost and gone, perhaps? <br /> <br />What siren-song ariseth <br />This sad night, this endless seeming night <br />From the sweet silver bosom of the sea <br />By the three rocks?<br /><br />Emmanuel George Cefai<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-siren-song-arises/
