Seasons of Life by Audrey Cofield



Curved Corner

Wild Geese

Out in the far gray horizon
     Come a faint, weird muffled cry,
Wild gees flying in formation
     Form a V high in the sky.

Instinct keeps them ever migrating,
     One lone leader guides their flight,
All pursuing, dauntless enduring,
     Not diverging day or night.

Men, like geese, must have a leader,
     Courageous, sagacious, dynamically strong,
That no schism grows internal,
     And their days be free and long.
