In this ignorant land of dark honkings, weird mutterings
& wombat calls - out of the olive grove steps at last,
a slender, upright figure of Classical purity. Of course.
Who else could it ever have been but Stephen holding
out as an offering his scroll of Elysian music?
What a relief. And what a gracious, ungrudging tribute
to my compatriots. As the heart-stopping curve of
'Here, there & everwhere' uncoils in one's head,
these old Brit eyes grow wet with poignant memory
& gratitude.
