                 Songs of Farewell

A migrant song-bird I,
Out of the blue, between the sea and sky,
Landward blown on bright, untiring wings;
Out of the south I fly,
.   .   .   When flutes of April blow
The immemorial longing lures me and I go.
 

             -Maurice Thompson
 
 
 

                 Home Coming

Cleaving the cky with their moon-edged pinions
   High over sity and village and mart,
April to Pilot them, May speeding after,
   And each bird's compass his small red heart.

             -Edwin Arnold
