The Fog Again Has Settled In

Rerun from Nov 2023

Rondeau

The fog again has settled in
Along the river like a skin,
Beyond the bridge where thought ascends
The lengths of cables to their ends,
Stretched taut and hooked with bolt and pin.

Clark and Lewis and their men
Came this way, the west to win,
And later found that winter sends
The fog again.

Sacagawea and her kin
Saved them from their own chagrin 
To find the river where it bends
Towards the ocean where it blends
With sunrise hidden there within
The fog again.
