Long Sometimes

Long Sometimes
| long sometimes for the mountain
peaks,
And the far reach of the sea.
l long sometimes for voice that
speaks
In the rustic of a tree.
long sometimes for the lonely heights
Close to the spreading sky
Where the only sound on summer
nights
Is a waterfall, close by.
long for the silence of wooded space,
For the fellowship of stars;
long for the peace, of Il quiet place
That nothing human mars.
But if I were there in that calm retreat
With wilderness to view.
l know l would pine for my noisy
street,
And long to come home to you.
