Feather in the Grass photo by Barbara Boethling |
leaving a stream of unseen enfolding lines.
I remember the caress of the clouds-
we were white on white.
I remember the lift within the vane-
strong and complete.
I remember the unseen air singing in the barbicels ~
a great breath bringing every dream alive.
Downy wisps remain my very own dream~ afterfeathers that still catch sunlight and breeze,
I am sustained by the thought of all this love.
To write this piece I wanted to learn more about the parts of a feather- so I of course delighted to learn quite a bit.

The poem is not only beautiful, it's a lesson, too! That's very cool, geeks like us love to learn things like this (my husband says I should go on Jeopardy). Seriously, your poem made me feel I was flying- I mean, FEEL it. xo
