from afar
the dark flows
pride
beholden
before chance
hearing
the call of love
then
notices the sunlight
&
feels its wonder
weeping
behind a cloud
years of
decay
with its neighbour
care
is pleased to answer
with
supreme surprise
curiosity
appears
unfettered
yet
perplexed
by choice
uncurls
in fear
yields
to sleep
impulse
is flattered
&
pretends
to displace despair
&
doubt
excites &
invents
nerves
to blight
all life
today
conceit
possesses the staid
provokes
change into
flight
where concern
stands
discrete
splashed
by peace
&
found at dawn
in belief
reason laments
the night
begins&urges
the
spread of vision
dressed
by
the good
on
the
brow
of mankind
brevity
discovers design
innate
yet
as an impulse
comes in
ahead of purpose
a gift
to flood
the future
thought commands
&
dominates
talk
forsakes merit
aloft as
vapour
descends
to the abode
of sound
attends
the dance
to
partcipate
with
charm
once forgotten
