Further then these rolling hills
Beyond this sky’s powerful thunder,
Longer then these boundless sea,
I long to seek safe refuge.
Higher then the mountains of Venus,
Soaring above these volcanoes,
These clouds in the Earth’s sky,
I crave to take wing.
Yet I stay,
Closer to this empty home,
Where the sky is lucid and full of dust,
On these continent plains,
I stay, I stay.
Deeper is a desire to go,
Under the warm ground,
To a level so profound,
Be part so small of the worlds toil.
I pray and pray and pray.
Lastly I want to see,
That lush and beautiful sight,
Of marvels beyond grasp,
Those gems of wonder,
In your eyes, only your eyes.
There are some good stanzas here. This speaks of a great depth of emotion.
