Here you will find thePoemJust as the ocean cradles our earth's orb...of poet Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev
Just as the ocean cradles our earth's orb, This earthly life's by dreams surrounded; Night falls, against the shore The waters beat in roaring waves. This is its voice: it beckons us and calls . . . The magic bark is stirring in its mooring; The tide swells up and sweeps us rapidly away Into the fathomless dark waves. The heavenly vault, ablaze with glorious stars, Gazes inscrutably out of the depths And we sail on, surrounded on all sides By the abyss in flames.
