Carl Sandburg - PencilsCarl Sandburg - Pencils
Work rating: Low


PENCILS telling where the wind comes from   open a story.     Pencils telling where the wind goes   end a story.   These eager pencils come to a stop .. only .. when the stars high over come to a stop.   Out of cabalistic to-morrows come cryptic babies calling life a strong and a lovely thing. I have seen neither these nor the stars high over come to a stop. Neither these nor the sea horses running with the clocks of the moon. Nor even a shooting star snatching a pencil of fire writing a curve of gold and white. Like you .. I counted the shooting stars of a winter night and my head was dizzy with all of them calling one by one:           Look for us again.
