INDIAN SUMMER: THIS IS THE WORD! by KATHARINE TYNAN

First Line: THAT MAKES A THING OF FLAME THE WATER-BIRD
Last Line: ARE NOT DELIVERED TO THE INSATIABLE SEA.
Subject(s): GOD; INDIAN SUMMER; PRAISE;

That makes a thing of flame the water-bird.
This mercy of His fulfilled in the magical
Clear glow of skies from dawn to evenfall,
Telling His Hand is over us, that we
Are not delivered to the insatiable sea.
