Wild Geese Take Flight

from Haiku Music - Volume 3 by George L Smyth

about

The wild geese take flight
Low along the railroad tracks
In the moonlight night

This is a haiku by Masaoka Shiki, a Japanese poet, author, and literary critic in Meiji period Japan. Shiki is regarded as a major figure in the development of modern haiku poetry.

I’ve done a good bit of hiking, and one of the pleasures is coming across a large pond filled with geese. They are magestic both coming and going, and I have a feeling of awe whenever I am fortunate enough to experience this.

Wild Geese Take Flight is written for two Trombones, Gong, Vibraphone, Harp, two solo Violins, solo Viola, solo Cello, solo String Bass, and chorus.
