Here you will find the Poem Grey Rocks, and Greyer Sea of poet Charles G. D. Roberts

Grey Rocks, and Greyer Sea

Grey rocks, and greyer sea, 
   And surf along the shore -- 
And in my heart a name 
   My lips shall speak no more. 

The high and lonely hills 
   Endure the darkening year -- 
And in my heart endure 
   A memory and a tear. 

Across the tide a sail 
   That tosses, and is gone -- 
And in my heart the kiss 
   That longing dreams upon. 

Grey rocks, and greyer sea, 
   And surf along the shore -- 
And in my heart the face 
   That I shall see no more.
