White frozen mountain tops
beautifully glisten
Elegantly reflect glamour
right up to the heaven
Powdery crystal frost
sprinkles in swift winds
Blankets of snow cover
summits of highlands
Pure blue glacier water
flows down icy peaks
Slowly runs through
mossy rocks into streams
Reflections of landscapes
visible on still waters
Picturesque lakes located
between high mountains
Fragrant wildflowers bloom
in green meadows
Widely spread evergreen
Pine-woods on the hills
A troop of foxes run together
on thorny fir needles
Tiny little cubs hide inside
underground burrows
Symbol of power freely
floats in distant air
Spreads apart broad
bold wings of elegant flair
Gently circles underneath a
smooth cumulus cloud
King of the sky majestically
lands on grassy ground...

Hemakumar, Thanks for that you have given me chance of jotas of minute to turn in an eagle, you write perfectly. Thank you, Tsira
This poem is as impressive as the majestic creature that inspired it. Your love of nature is apparent in all you write and your fluency with the English language (not your mother tongue) is to be admired. I can see your eagle. Beautiful penning. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Very beautiful piece of writing Hemakumar, a magical read and such a pleasure to find. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX
You paint a beautiful pristine picture for us here. Nothing more extraordinary than snow-capped mountains with an Eagle soaring overhead. Add colorful wildflowers. Oh, so lovely. Thanks! Best Wishes, Marilyn
Beautifully described! Excellent description of the wild described seen from the 'zoom in lenses' of the keenly perceptive and graceful eagle. Excellent work!
Everything came together for me in the last stanza. 'lands on the ground'. This helped me realize that your were describing the descent of the eagle in the above stanzas and what it saw. 'Tiny little cubs hide inside underground burrows' is especially poignant. They and the red foxes flee for safety. A lot of good imagery. Well done.
As seen through the eyes of the eagle the cares of earth must seem very small. A rare write.Very beautiful. Warmest regards, Sandra
