In honor of a wonderful woman
To Be A Bird
The Eagle soars, then comes to rest,
atop an impossible tower.
The Eagle soars from the seat of Power.
atop an impossible tower.
The Eagle soars from the seat of Power.
The Owl watches, patiently perched,
atop a moonlit roof.
The Owl watches from the seat of Truth.
The Lark sings, a melody made,
atop the clouds above.
The Lark sings from the seat of Love.
To be a bird!
To be all three!!!
With enough Love,
to find the Truth and Power in me.
