DEPARTED TRAVELLERS by GRANT HYDE CODE

First Line: I HAVE BEEN EXILED AMONG STONY HILLTOPS
Last Line: HAVE WISTFUL EYES.
Subject(s): EXILES; TRAVEL; UNITED STATES - IMMIGRATION & EMIGTRATION; JOURNEYS; TRIPS;
I HAVE been exiled among stony hilltops
Tumbled under the dun clouds.

I have seen hilltops dancing with yellow,
Poppies laughing among the mustard gold.

I understand that the dead also,
Remembering this country,
Have wistful eyes.
