Lucy Maud Montgomery - The Sea to the Shore
Work rating: Low

Lo, I have loved thee long, long have I yearned and entreated!
  Tell me how I may win thee, tell me how I must woo.
Shall I creep to thy white feet, in guise of a humble lover ?
  Shall I croon in mild petition, murmuring vows anew ? 

Shall I stretch my arms unto thee, biding thy maiden coyness,
  Under the silver of morning, under the purple of night ?
Taming my ancient rudeness, checking my heady clamor­
  Thus, is it thus I must woo thee, oh, my delight? 

Nay, `tis no way of the sea thus to be meekly suitor­
  I shall storm thee away with laughter wrapped in my beard of snow,
With the wildest of billows for chords I shall harp thee a song for thy bridal,
  A mighty lyric of love that feared not nor would forego! 

With a red-gold wedding ring, mined from the caves of sunset,
  Fast shall I bind thy faith to my faith evermore,
And the stars will wait on our pleasure, the great north wind will trumpet
  A thunderous marriage march for the nuptials of sea and shore.
