Traveling Templar: June 2015
http://www.travelingtemplar.com/2015_06_01_archive.html

Not keener burns, in the chill morning sky,. The herald star,. Shadows and boding night-birds fly. Methinks we need him once again,. That favour’d seer—but where shall he be found? By Cherith’s side we seek in vain,. In vain on Carmel’s green and lonely mound:. From Sinai soar,. On his celestial errands bound. But wafted to her glorious place.
