Curlew at Sunset

Hii..

Something approaches; it fills the head of the vast valley that splits Stanage Edge from Castleton
and drags a black curtain from its shoulders that darkens the land in its passing.
It swirls in the air this thing like its alive, like its a billion strong flock of starlings dancing a waltz;
snow! and hail, in May! I crouch in a hole in the escarpment rocks like a deity in a prayer niche
and fancy for a moment that a great horned head is conjured in the wind blown mass like a face seen in a cloud.
Winter's last heroes die, the wind drops, the sky is a stained glass window, shafts of sunlight break through
and a curlew's calls fill the valley with a melancholy, a loneliness, a conduit to the soul of the world.

Thanks!

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
