Huntress

Silently gliding through 

invisible trails

In search of quarry 

most rare.

Her bare feet

leaving no prints

for the earth 

to reveal her passing.

Her eyes, deepest amber,

search endlessly

until they light upon

her gilded prey.

Notching a silver arrow 

from her woven quiver

she takes its life,

and in return

she gives thanks 

and blessings 

to her prey 

and the gods 

that provide.

A noble and proper view of the human being's relationship to Earth's other living creatures.
Beautifully composed.
Thank you, Sheena.

A daughter of Diana.

You make my Gods plain to the naked eye and I thank you for it!

[Richielee]

nature in full flow,so very well described and an obvious love for nature shines through

[John Jackson (El Juero)]

Yes, the way it's meant to be. Thankfulness seems like an anachronism theses days.
Love the poem.

[Rene Velez]

nice images, the atmosphere of a storied tale, with more beneath the surface.
