I think your post is a modernized version of this:

FROM far, from eve and morning
And yon twelve-winded sky,
The stuff of life to knit me
Blew hither: here am I.

Now—for a breath I tarry
Nor yet disperse apart—
Take my hand quick and tell me,
What have you in your heart.

Speak now, and I will answer;
How shall I help you, say;
Ere to the wind’s twelve quarters
I take my endless way.

About petronius

Inveniet quod quisque velit; non omnibus unum est, quod placet; hic spinas colligit, ille rosas.
