Classic Poem

Here peace and beauty reign,
Here by the sea;
Here I am whole again,
Of pain set free!
Flung to the dappled sky
All old desire,
Cleansed in the sun-fire
That which was I;
Each little nerve of me
Strung sweet anew,
Each weary sense of me
Soothed by the blue;
No more the ache of things
No more the sigh;
Hark! has my soul spread wings
