Nate Flying Owl Poems

Child Soldier, you afflicted soul
All the carnage that you have witnessed
Must be cumbersome to your heart
With such torturous persistance
...

Dearest Orca, long has it been
Since we last enjoyed the pleasure
Of each other's companionship
What oceanic adventures
...

The aroma of a recent downpour
Lingers on the air like a charming kiss
Grey clouds still concealing morning sunlight
Songbirds signal the attendance of spring
...

Fearless of the darkest midnight
I stride through the shadows that find my path
So much have I endured so far
Though evil haunts my every step
...

Within the far depths of a moonless night,
A pride stirs among the dancing shadows.
The herd is not aware of the danger,
And their movements leave a young one exposed.
...

Doth thou ever hear
A voice in thy ear
Speaking loud and clear
Through each season?
...

</>Children of the written word
You wield in your minds, voices and fingers
The weaponry you need to fight for truth
In your minds, the ideas
...

The wind tastes the marrow of my bones
Jehovah's movement become evident
Through the leaves of each tree I encounter
And moments can last lifetimes when I pause
...

Sasquatch, you taciturn savage
To be straightforward, I do not
Believe that you exist at all
I see you as an archetype,
...

Seeking sanctuary in shadows
You dwell on every despondency
Nightmares penetrating your slumber
You leave your social ties malnourished
...
