I am standing upon the seashore. 
 A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze 
 and starts for the blue ocean. 
 
 She is an object of beauty and strength, 
 and I stand and watch until at last she hangs 
 like a speck of white cloud 
 just where the sea and sky come down to mingle with each other. 
 Then someone at my side says, 
 ' There she goes! ' 
 
 Gone where? 
 
 Gone from my sight... that is all. 
 
 She is just as large in mast and hull and spar 
 as she was when she left my side 
 and just as able to bear her load of living freight 
 to the place of destination. 
 
 Her diminished size is in me, not in her. 
 
 And just at the moment 
 when someone at my side says, 
 ' There she goes! ' 
 there are other eyes watching her coming... 
 and other voices ready to take up the glad shout... 
 
 ' Here she comes! ' 
 And that is dying.
