Passing Ebb
Sun's lowest ebb
passes swift....
a second in time
in silence
through stone
and out in space.
Light rests inside
like burning embers
kindling sparks
that scatter abroad
and fall asunder.
I wonder....
when the sun shall die
and hear the waves
by and by
that echo
like an eagle's cry.
Slumber comes...
this winter's long-
I wait and yearn
for brighter times
when blue and colour
fill the days
and spring releases
golden haze.
I waken
at the rising hour-
the sun is new
and gaining power
as hope for concord
years ahead
in held within
each moving tide....
thus flowing on
with pride
in conflict's stead.
