Inspired by the phrase ‘The feeling of health, the full-noon trill’ taken from ‘Song of Myself (Leaves of Grass)’ by Walt Whitman. This now comprises a part of The Linkages Project |
I rise up
comes the dawn
it heralds me
I
herald the day
and as the grey
retreats
and the green enlivens
the sun shines golden
new light
there is a feeling
of wellness
of health
that is the cycle
of being
once again
and I sing
along with a magpie
learning
the noon day trill
we sing along
with each other
and between us two
the day must know
that it is being
that we
are being
and that heralds
the best feeling
that I know
