The Albatross

White blue silence
Stillness, keening, yearning
Lone bird on the wing, feeling the currents
He knows alone, I know alone, you know alone
Yet, over the grey white waves
Through the crystalline ice
Comes the song
The whales are singing
The wind joins in, the ocean swells and laughs
The song pulses, touching the yearning
Touching the eternal loneness with eternal song
The swooping wing picks it up
Carries it, links the dreamers
Weaves the song into the current of hope
Who am I, I say
We are all one , he sings on the wind
What is I, he says
This moment is I, is you, is everything
And we both understand
