I feel your energy rising in me
Like a young pale moon
Peering over the jade of an Asian jungle
A sweet warm mist floating between us
With a scent of soy
We swim as swans among stars
Graceful and grinning, glancing to
Catch koi kissing
In the green algae glow of our wake.

Pattern of nations
Until out of the sea
Free men came
Walking against the wind

On their own beaches
And against their own wind
They made their own history
Claimed their own destiny
Left their own patterns of responsibility
With the rhythm of their determinism
"It is always windy," they said.
