Feathers In The Wind Poem by Geody Harman

Feathers In The Wind



Feathers in the wind appear, in the window of my world,
Feathers of some creature passing in the winding swirl!

Feathers to Lift
Feathers to Fly
Feathers for Warmth
Feathers gone By

What would I be with feathers and wings?
An angel in heaven who trumpets and sings?

Here as I sit by the seashore of life,
The feathers I see are the ones from my wife.

She has come to this life with a zeal for good things,
She has grown out her feathers into beautiful wings!

Feathers in the wind appear drifting by,
The feathers of her love are released to the sky.

What would I do with some feathers in my life,
I'd give them to God to bring back my sweet wife!

I'd give up the heart beating in my fair chest,
I'd give up the honor bound up in my test!

What feathers have you found floating in the wind near,
Do they bring out a smile or a painful warm tear?

Feathers in the wind have appeared in my view,
The feathers that I see are now coming from you!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is the poem that I felt to write on the first time submitting to this site. I do not know who it is for... which is usually rare. Most of the time when I am inspired to write a poem it is for someone directly... I ask them to give me a title and then I will use the gift I have to write them a poem. During this poem I felt the loss of someone who will read this poem, the loss of a spouse. It nearly made me cry when writing it and so I know it will affect the person it is meant for. I appreciate the ability to share my gift with the people who will view it in this forum and look forward to many thousands of submissions in the coming days/weeks/months/years.

A favorite cousin of mine, upon losing her soul mate, told me she believes when she finds a white feather, internet oddest of places, it is her beloved returning for a visit....Stumbled across your poem which I will share with her. Thank you for the validation of Peace.....
