Second April by Edna St. Vincent Millay

LOW-TIDE

These wet rocks where the tide has been,
Barnacled white and weeded brown
And slimed beneath to a beautiful green,

A giant's empty house all day,--
House full of wonderful things and new,
But no fit place for a child to play.

Of dazzling mud and dingy snow;
