A poem inspired by "The solitary reaper" and "The girl from yesterday"---
They went through the same way-After a long night,
And they left nobody behind.Till there was light-
Enough to shadow the darkness,They called out her name,
The moment she looked at my eyes-And evening came-
Through the trees of the dark forest,Over pale green Highland-
Where small creeks ran silver,Then she waved her hand-
She left all her neighbours,She left all her friends,
She left the lights and highland shades,She left the trees so dense.
She lent me her eyes-Through them I saw the greens,
I saw the cloud - golden and proud-And the the sky that leans-
To kiss her hand that holds horizon,And she looked at my eyes-
And they called out her name again-And she left to see the sun rise-
In some other part of the landscape-With eyes soaked in sorrow,
And she left the highland vale-The girl from tomorrow.
