MIDDAY, by                    
First Line: The road is like a little child running ahead of me
Last Line: Of silence.
Subject(s): Roads; Paths; Trails


The road is like a little child running ahead of me and then hiding behind a
curve --
Perhaps to surprise me when I reach there.

The sun has built a nest of light under the eaves of noon;
A lark drops down from the cloudless sky
Like a singing arrow, wet with blue, sped from the bow of space.

But my eyes pierce the soft azure, far, far beyond,
To where roam eternal lovers
Along the broad blue ways
Of silence.
