| West Kerry, Ireland (Graham Davies) |
The sky opens wider,
the sun burns stronger,
and so do I,
for what are we
if not the weather and the day,
if not the thawing ground,
if not the surging sea,
if not the open sky
where rise our hopes for humankind,
despite the news,
but, oh, to stand in sunlight
and think what we could be.
