I am pieces of you and me
strung together in birdsong
feathers and wings
I am one with a buffalo
tuning into the spiritual
realm, with each beat
of my heart
I am of the hawk & eagle
birds of prey/ who (prays)
using my inner intuition
seeking higher vision
I am of bone and turtle rattles
in tune with the animal
kingdom and their songs
I am of the blue heron
learning patience and balance
in times of need
I am of the wolf
who tracked me in a dream
with a message of hope & love
for a friend
I am of the deer
messenger of healing
and regeneration
in touch with
life mysteries
I am of the blue heron
learning patience and balance
in times of need
I am of the wolf
who tracked me in a dream
with a message of hope & love
for a friend
I am of the deer
messenger of healing
and regeneration
in touch with
life mysteries
I am of flesh, bones, talons
feathers, wings, web feet
shell, fur and hide
I am more than meets the eye
if only you would look deeper
writing about messages from the wild
I have an amazing relationship with
animals of the wild. They always
seem to show up to offer guidance
in my life.
I pondered this prompt and this is what
spoke to me.
I'm glad your inner voice inspired this poem. It's beautiful. I have an immense love of animals, so I appreciate your words so thoroughly.

DeleteYes you do. I think this poem expresses it beautifully.
ReplyDeleteThank you Alex. I had an encounter with a cardinal today a symbolism of devotion.
DeleteYour poem captures the feelings I have when I blessed with a profound encounter with animals in the wild. All thoughts of separation are erased as there is a communion on some wild, soul level. Suzanne of Wordpress blog - Mapping Uncertainty
ReplyDeleteI feel animals are sent to us for various reason. Most often to help guide and heal. Signs that you are not alone.
Deleteyou write clearly of that wild connection ~
