Calls

W. Golde

Because I have called to you

as the flame flamingo calls,

or the want of a spotted hawk

is called --

because in the dusk

the warblers shoot the running

waters of short songs to the

homecoming warblers --

because

the cry here is wing to wing

and song to song --

I am waiting,

waiting with the flame flamingo,

the spotted hawk, the running water

warbler --

waiting for you.
