Returning Turns

Returning Turns

A Poem by Donald Meikle

To see again Saint Elmos's fire
prance and dance on moonlit wings
See clouds aboil in starry skies
as sleep oercomes my tired eyes
and Morpheus turns it all to dreams
To waken now so many turns
Away and past what somehow seems
Unreal as Elmo's fire burns
so cold in rushing ignored winds
Of memories returned

Prehaps you shall see it again...

For some reason I see a man ship board returning to home harbour. Perhaps its the St Elmo's fire. Excellent.
