WILDNESS

Cale Young Rice

To drift with the drifting clouds, And blow with the blow of breezes, To ripple with waves and murmur with caves To soar, as the sea-mew pleases!

To dip with the dipping sails, And burn with the burning heaven — My life! my soul! for the infinite roll Of a day to wildness given!
