Me and Mother Harbor let the tide slip away Revealing her hands entwined in mine Safe and sound and sweet and soft beneath the whip of my flags three Hello Carolopolis! Carolina! My Country 'Tis of Thee! Quiet undercover of another deep blue night Threads of silk in a sateen sky dimming the gibbous light While five tapdancing fingers piano your prickly spine Up and down and up again - a silly rhythm in my mind Your Baby's Breath Breeze does billow my sojourner's breast Your Baby's Breath breathing good tidings who beckon me home Your Baby's Breath healing my sin-sick soul At last, at once, for all! You are a Palmetto; I catch you pom-pomming my skies Tippy-toes hardly anchored in the wharf We are nestled somewhere halfway up a South Atlantic Coast Brackish muddy waters never felt so warm! Toes of mine so tickled by the prickles of the fingers of a tidepool Who decided to stick around a while and play Stick around after the sheets over me and my beloved Lady Harbor Slipped and slid away Never have I ever felt such a pulse of white hot lightning So stilling and silent and exciting Autonomic static shock after catatonic shock After - don't stop - please, just one more shut-the-world-out shock The tidepool ripples in our too-tiny bed The surface sparkles Eversilver And I shall sing now to thee - and only thee My beloved Harbor Mother, intertwined in me Five tapdancing fingers piano your prickly spine Up and down and up again
