He gets to say it
because he wrote his whole thing
down from first to last -
and next, his sunrise
on the highest point diving
down the spire. Always
in the distance new shade
freshly drawn where night
fades in one fine day and he
calls our young to work,
to rise and grow wings,
to reach cruising shape and speed,
to say yes to it
while elders grin, sigh,
blow breathy notes on worn reeds
and then shuffle on.

ReplyDeleteWow! I wonder just what in fact was going through your winding mind on this one, Christo???
ReplyDeleteThe Washington Monument - Dan Brown's sunrise vision there was too good to let alone. I had to respond. Indeed, Tom. :)
