High Country Weather by James K. Baxter
I've taken a liking to this poem. A friend introduced me to New Zealand's beloved poet James K. Baxter several months ago, and I recognized Baxter's name when I stumbled upon this poem today:
alone we are born and die alone yet see the red-gold cirrus over snow-mountain shine
upon the upland road ride easy stranger surrender to the sky your heart of anger
