The lover of child Marjory <br />Had one white hour of life brim full; <br />Now the old nurse, the rocking sea, <br />Hath him to lull. <br />The daughter of child Marjory <br />Hath in her veins, to beat and run, <br />The glad indomitable sea, <br />The strong white sun.<br /><br />Bliss William Carman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-sea-child-2/
