River Hawk - Song of an Osprey

Courtesy of Pixabay

Facing the hot summer sun
a silhouette appears in the sky
swooping over the river edge
swerving in front of my path
I stand frozen, a frighten doe
adjusting my vision in bright light
pondering my next move

The river hawk, sharing energy
with a weary traveler, a reminder
that sometimes we need to claw
our way back spiritually, communing
with nature brings healing and balance
faith is at a tipping point and the
challenge of change is ahead

what are the desires of your heart

Awareness often brings clarity
after the blinding light of love
lingering clouds disperse liberating
the captive heart, freeing negativity
positive energy can once again flow
through the veins of consciousness
and the songs of hope sing loud

The river hawk, a catcher of fish
knows to take only what he needs
filling his belly when hunger strikes
the water recedes and diving into
the depth of understanding can be
difficult, how to navigate the
waterway to inner harmony, a
shaman will always dream a way

what song will nourish you soul

author's note: I had a surreal encounter with an Osprey
the other day.  I am honoring his visitation. 

Thank you for reading the wanderings of my mind...

Grooves in Flight


Mesmerized by your splendor

of grooved feathers

and mottled wings

gliding in lofty

Egyptian blue skies

my heart flutters

in bright sunlight

if only I could fly

I'd wing my way

to your faraway

shores and fervently

nest in the folds

of love's dream
