On the granite ground<br>It sounded nigh, and on the beach<br>It grew remote; upon that sound<br>With seeking eyes each questioned each.<br>Grouped close, like men of carven stone —<br>Chilled stone — we stood with rooted feet.<br>'He comes! What news?' Not hoofs alone<br>In that tense moment swiftly beat.<br>Cried one: 'Joy rides at such a pace,<br>Joy swift of hoof, and light as air!'<br>Said one — eyes sunk, and pallid face —<br>'So too, at times, rides dread Despair!'<br>We waited, vexed by dumb surmise,<br>Eyes wide, lips wide, tense faces white;<br>Ears served till ears gave place to eyes,<br>Sound likewise yielding unto sight.<br>He came with headlong speed and dash,<br>Fierce lightning lighting land and sea,<br>And in that red, revealing flash<br>He rose and shouted 'Victory!'</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Roderic+Quinn">Roderic Quinn</a><div class=q>

The sea snored like some sleeping brute;
We stood alert, with every sense
Like some leashed hound, nerve-thrilled, acute.
About us clammy dew made wet
The thin, green leaves and sleeping flowers;
