Where will the song end? Here? <br />Here by the stretching arc <br />Red-rimmed and clear> <br />Or there in the dark? <br />Where will the song end? <br />Here, where the lizard sticks its tongue <br />Into the wide air? <br />Or there with a friend? <br />Where will the last note be sung? <br />Here, or there? <br /> <br />How will the song end? High? <br />Hight with a fighting ring <br />Through the wild sky <br />Re-echoing? <br />How will the tune cease? <br />Slow-droned beneath a quiet heaven? <br />With a dead foe? <br />Or ‘mid bells of peace? <br />How will the last note be given? <br />High, or low?<br /><br />Leon Gellert<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-song-s-end/
