The eagle flies above the herd
She sees the ebb and flow
Of those that walk beneath her wings
All who raise their head feel awe
Or envy of her majesty
A courier who moves between
The court of the Father Sun
And the bounty of the Mother Sea
Belonging nowhere but where
She chooses to nest and brood
Her strong talons clutch her prey
She risks the water's icy embrace
To pull her sustenance from the waves
Powerful enough to challenge beasts of Earth
Yet not too proud to pick at the dead
Keen of eye
Sharp of beak
Powerful talon
Smiling cheek
Valiant parent
Ascendant flier
My thanks I give
As she takes me higher

- I love to write. I relish weaving words into tapestries of thought, painting pictures that dance in the mind's eye, unique to each reader. To be able to reach someone else, to make them see something they haven't seen before, or to give them a new perspective on a mental landscape they've been staring at for years, is to form a sublime connection that each party walks away richer from. I hope you find that connection here.
