A bird: stands upon the edge of the earth,
and seeks the horizons;
where the wind will carry her, she can see,
and then, to where she can not.
She coils her legs,
spreads her wings,
bounds into the wind-steam,
and takes herself across the currents
to where her curiosity desires.
When you land, wait for me,
for I shall walk to you; fear not,
for my feet have a lifetime.
