THE SEEKERS
V ENUS the star, and this the season surely Drawing the forerunners on ocean ways, Linking the islands with the speech of kindred, Sinking the sun, but lengthening his days. New-made and glittering the Fish of Maui Raised by canoemen from the ocean ways, Venus their star, as now she shines above us. What hopes adventure in these later days? Now what world can we this season surely Pluck trom the future on its starry ways? Venus above us, but the course uncertain, Annihilation for the secret islands; We noose the sun, may darken, shorten only Atomic days. -S. J. Harrox
