Walt Whitman - To The Man-of-War-Bird

Walt Whitman - To The Man-of-War-Bird

THOU who hast slept all night upon the storm, br Waking renew'd on thy prodigious pinions, br (Burst the wild storm? above it thou ascended'st, br And rested on the sky, thy slave that cradled thee,) br Now a blue point, far, far in heaven floating, br As to the light emerging here on deck I watch thee, br (Myself a speck, a point on the world's floating vast.) br br Far, far at sea, br After the night's fierce drifts have strewn the shores with wrecks, br With re-appearing day as now so happy and serene, 10 br The rosy and elastic dawn, the flashing sun, br The limpid spread of air cerulean, br Thou also re-appearest.
