The High Winds Adventurer
With Signals to a Weather-vane
1
Singer from the high cliffs at the ends of the earth,
Sender of whirling tales
Bend them to issue out a far cry;
Make them slap upon and off
The sweat-faced rocks;
Only to follow brooks, chase the geese flocks.
Then to eventuate: somewhere swallowed up
By hungry depths of crevice.
2
My fellow wandering searchers,
Gleaners of lost and fallen squalls:
“Look hard and you might tell
The cloud bank from the mighty jutting snow caps.
(Everything has been regulated in scale
On your topographical guide maps.)”
3
Singer from the high cliffs at the ends of the earth
Send compressed melodies in transit.
Sandwiched in-between cumulonimbus lifts,
They will lumber on, blown along…
Till wet sheets of torrents
Pour down as if a manuscript
Is getting penned against the sky;
And inter-smacking canons are laying waste to the hush.
4
Singer from the tall cliffs in the halls of the earth
Gather harmony from diversity...
And from the four corners of the globe.
Blend them. Feed them (in total)
Into the flow of Your robe.
Seed them within flood rains of spring.
Bale them and offer them up to talons of the storm.
Sail them beneath wings tuned for traveling immense distance
So as to disperse, and all, hither and yon.
So far and wide might come to abide
Inside the soul…and so too, the lonely traveler might know.
Sail them beneath wings tuned for traveling immense distance
So as to disperse, and all, hither and yon.
So far and wide might come to abide
Inside the soul…and so too, the lonely traveler might know.
