EDMONTON, CANADA “AURORA” 15 THE SEA-GULL When the misty dawn gives way To a world bathed in daylight, Or when the heat of the noonday sun Is chilled by the visit of night; And even long after the day is at rest, And the moon sheds her rays o’er the earth, Then, you can hear the wail of the gull. Oh bird, hast thou no mirth? Thy hiding place—some desolate shore, Disturbed by only the winds; And there unseen by the eyes of men, Thou spreadest out thy wings And upward ever upward soarest Unto a towering height, And when thy limits thou hast reached, Thou haltest in thy flight. Then, turning quickly, as a flash, With neck outstretched and open beak. Thou glidest swiftly down to earth, Thy throat emits a piercing shriek. And what, oh bird, has caused thy grief, And given thee such aching pains. That thou with sorrows pourest out Thy heart, in melancholy strains? Was it something which thou hast seen When floating in the skies? Hast thou calamity perceived, With ever watchful eyes? Hast thou espied portentous signs Of an approaching storm? And hast thou with thy clarion call Endeavored man to warn? Bird, if thou couldest speak the tongue Of every human race, Thou wouldst reprove their wicked¬ ness, Their deeds, corrupt and base. For all men’s jealousy and hate, Their search for temporal fame, Is cause enough to give to thee Unbounded grief and pain. GEORGE RODE.
