 | Collected poems of Herman Melville |  |
TIME'S LONG AGO!
Time's Long Ago! Nor coral islesIn the blue South Sea more serene
When the lagoons unruffled show.
There, Fates and Furies change their mien.
Though strewn with wreckage be the shore
The halcyon haunts it; all is green
And wins the heart that hope can lure no more.
| Collected poems of Herman Melville | |
