When was The Sea by James Reeves written?

There's no definitive answer to when "The Sea" by James Reeves was written. This is because the poem is part of a larger collection, and the specific poem is not dated. Here's what we do know:

* The poem is part of the collection "The Book of the Sea", which was first published in 1952.

* James Reeves wrote extensively about nature, and the sea was a frequent subject. So, it is likely that "The Sea" was written around the same time as the publication of "The Book of the Sea," or possibly earlier.

However, without specific information about the poem's composition, we can't be certain of its exact year of creation.
