Molly

2008

Maggie and Milly and Molly and May

Went down to the beach (to play one day)

And Maggie discovered a shell that sang

So sweetly she couldn`t remember her troubles, and

Milly befriended a stranded star

Whose rays five languid fingers were;

And Molly was chased by a horrible thing

Which raced sideways while blowing bubbles: and

May came home with a smooth round stone

As small as a world and as large as alone.

For whatever we lose (like a you or a me)

It`s always ourselves we find in the sea
