Emerald Freeways

A poem by Hamilton Lund, inspired by his trip to Blachford Lake Lodge in February 2017 with the Cloud Appreciation Society.

Emerald Freeways

This wind-river of magnetic night

reigns the deepest reaches of my realm

its searing source a burning heart

a breaking wave of silky rhythm.

These emerald freeways of the frozen north

where the souls of earthlings soar

on satin wings and starlight

aloft a glowing path of awe.

Hamilton Lund, Sydney, Australia.
