Write About a Search

From The Journey Itself Is Home:

Something of birdsong, in me 
Something of the stars 
Something of wild rivers in my veins 
Something of cohesion, something of chaos,
Something of wisdom
In my soul and in the universal flows
From which I came.

It searches for me
I search for it.
The beauty of wild things, wild places
Is in me.

I search for it.
             - Roderick MacIver
