oceans



Oceans

I have a feeling that my boat
Has struck, down there in the depths,
Against a great thing.
And nothing
happens! Nothing... Silence... Waves...

-- Nothing happens? Or has everything happened,
and we are standing now,
quietly in the new life?

--Juan Ramón Jiménez
(translated by Robert Bly)
