back to Carl Sandburg

โ€œKinโ€ by Carl Sandburg ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ (6 Jan 1878 โ€“ 22 Jul 1967)
Brother, I am fire
Surging under the ocean floor.
I shall never meet you, brother—
Not for years, anyhow;
Maybe thousands of years, brother.
Then I will warm you,
Hold you close, wrap you in circles,
Use you and change you—
Maybe thousands of years, brother.
