Take flight my soul

And feel the outstretched wonder of your wings 

The whispered feather kisses of a vagrant breeze 

That lifts and sings...

Take note my soul 

What nature knows of wonder and of grace 

The flowing stones - The quiet ceaseless ceding of 

All time and place...

Take ease my soul

Traditions stretching fore and aft were planned 

A long taut line of friendship passed from heart to heart

And hand to hand...
