Eagle Poem by yoonoos peerbocus

Eagle

Rating: 4.1


Away from the eyrie you ferry
winging without string
across nun-like clouds
up to the mystical blue sky
that sweeps down to the horizon
where the sun cools down, playing
with colours that fade
into a place placeless without border-
the sole great goal
to which the vast creation
moves.how I wish if only now
you could fold me in your wing
of faith touching every thing
with hues of heaven but in vain
in the close human woods
my God, I seek...

of course dying CAN be difficult. ask the person who had an elephant step on his/her chest ever-so-gently and THEN increase the downward pressure ever so slooowwly over a period of an hour until breathing ceases to be possible for the 'victim'! but, in another sense, dying IS easy compared to facing certain realities of living. that's one reason i wouldn't mind dying. BUT not by an elephant, though it WOULD be interesting! bri :) to MyPoemList

in this poem also [i've a previous comment, below], there is a period, followed by no space. i think you DO want a period.....with a nice space following it. WHAT IS THE TRUTH ONE IS BORN WITH? ? ? ? **** that i want to read about in a clear poem. **** i see YOU have properly place the with where it 'belongs', not at the end of a sentence (as i put it) ! ! you wrote: ....but truth with which you are born... bri :)

If I read this poem, a year ago... I would not have understood it. After experiencing the pain of loss... I fully understand what's in these words. Its like a mix of emotions, hard to explain yet you feel it and its very important too. This is very familiar to me now. Thank you so much Yoonoos. Simple but deep poem.
