Herons
By Charles deGuire Christoph
 
From “Reflections”

MANY, many herons
  Fly across the sky,—
  Sky full of my thoughts.
They are moving among my thoughts,—
  Many V-shaped birds        5
  Like boats for my thoughts to sail in.
 
Many, many heroes
  Fly with the herons—
  Men and ladies among the stars,
Poets and lovers I know;        10
  Many swift heroes
  Humming like words for a poem.
