short friendship poem

for truth, for love
the agony of having too much power
the rain was over, and the brilliant air
i think it just splendid
before the solemn bronze saint
a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
like eagles on up high
a thousand silent years ago
under a spreading chestnut tree
this is the song of youth
