Inspired

The moon, the sea conversed
Above, the stars conspired
Within the universe –

And I did so aspire
To capture it in verse
And by it be inspired –

Cool, reminded me of this Robert Frost poem -- style and subject. :D "The heart can think of no devotion/ Greater than being shore to ocean -/ Holding the curve of one position,/ Counting an endless repetition."
