Ponder living
in the world of
a bald eagle,
king of the skies,
plummeting
from the mountain
top to the glassy
clear blue lake
and rising again.
Oh the invigorating
rush of life,
exhilaration,
boundless freedom,
and ineffable
joy! Have you
been born
without wings?
Think again.
Bend life’s
harsh limitations
into a dream
beyond the
farthest silver star.
Then soar.
Imagination
and faith make
you as unencumbered
as this
feathered victor.
My dad passed this year. I saw several eagles since that time. It’s a great time to reflect on freedom!
Jill, I’m so sorry about your dad! May God comfort you. It is awesome to watch a majestic bird like an eagle!
