A mother casts her dreams into the sea; Because she must conclude her melody Hoping to cross that wild infinity Outside the fiery circle of memory, And then dissolves into a tapestry, Afloat once more upon eternity,
We, the words sent bobbing towards the sun,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy.
And fall back to the sweet dark hush of One,
A mother casts her dreams into the sea,
And on some infant shore again to run,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy
The howling surf, the incessant years undone ...
A mother casts her dreams into the sea
Her rolling, helpless drift again begun,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy
Once more the alien fury, never done ...
Again, again, her dreams into the sea,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy!
