Bird Of The Faraway Sea Poem by Peter S. Quinn

The bird that arrived from the outlying sea
With a pounding heart and two fair blue eyes
In throbbing of new love through fresh airy free
From the distances of aroused morning skies
It came from overseas of the faraway
To live in the passions of summer's true dream
And to meet the wilderness in its clean play
Where everything is in vividness gleam

Dangers are offered on its feathers white
From coming sideways of the hills aside
In dark glow of mountains like shadowy night
Where wings of life aspirations onward glide
Her dream is to give birth to the free and new
Little sea gulls of young to soar the sky blue
