THE RESTLESS FLOW (SSC6 Poetry Challenge)

Lyrics: 'The Shimmer of the Sound' by Richard Le Gallienne. Music: ThunderousSilence © 2024 https://suno.com/@thunderoussilence [Intro] (O how the sea-weed sways and swings! Is it her hair - has she been found In the long shimmer of the Sound!) [Verse 1] In the long shimmer of the Sound May I some day be laughing found, Part of its restless to and fro, A humble worker of the tides That round the sleepless planet flow, And in the rock and drift of things - [Pre-Chorus] (O how the sea-weed sways and swings! Is it her hair - has she been found In the long shimmer of the Sound!) [Chorus] Do some small task I do not know - O maybe help the mussel grow, Or tint the shell-imprisoned pearl - Do some small task I do not know - Do some small task... I do not know... [Verse 2] A mute companion of the waves That toss within their moonlit graves - (Is it a king, or but a girl?) And, all the while, she sings and sings, And waves her wild white hands with glee, Mysterious sister of the world, That singing water called the sea. [Bridge] (O tell me was this sea-weed found In the long shimmer of the Sound!) [Pre-Chorus] (O how the sea-weed sways and swings! Is it her hair - has she been found In the long shimmer of the Sound!) [Chorus] Do some small task I do not know - O maybe help the mussel grow, Or tint the shell-imprisoned pearl - Do some small task I do not know - Do some small task..... I do not know - Do some small task I do not know - Do some small task..... I do not know - [END]
