Archibald Lampman - A Sunset at Les EboulementsArchibald Lampman - A Sunset at Les Eboulements
Work rating: Low


Broad shadows fall. On all the mountain side   The scythe-swept fields are silent. Slowly home   By the long beach the high-piled hay-carts come,   Splashing the pale salt shallows. Over wide   Fawn-coloured wastes of mud the slipping tide,   Round the dun rocks and wattled fisheries,   Creeps murmuring in. And now by twos and threes,   O`er the slow spreading pools with clamorous chide,   Belated crows from strip to strip take flight.  Soon will the first star shine; yet ere the night  Reach onward to the pale-green distances,  The sun`s last shaft beyond the gray sea-floor  Still dreams upon the Kamouraska shore,  And the long line of golden villages.
