just one feather

for those who long for more than what we see…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scanning the sky for angel wings

and other wispy sacred things

to see beyond what life can bring

or cry and for my days I cling…

›

More than dust or caustic wind

more than fragile bones to mend

such dreams my heart longs to transcend

from frosted feelings I ascend…

›

In nineteen worlds beyond compare

I sense ten thousand hallowed stairs

to take me far beyond despair

astride a weeping silver mare…

›

One tranquil day I wish to see

beyond fragmented tapestries

in a world beyond the golden tree

just one feather…

›

 

Author's Note

There is more... so much more...
