I awake in darkness and silence.
The velvet of night still caresses the earth.
Then the horizon sky is rent by a scarlet slash
Day will not be denied.

Velvet turns to silver, smoke and ash - the clouds of Autumn
The birds of summer have long since fled. The chorus is stilled.
Then comes the sound of mighty wings
And the call of the Wild Goose

A flight in formation soars overhead
Majestic and graceful, seeking their lakeside home
Over the tree tops they go
And all is still once more.
