Upward, downward, high & low
Arms of feathers that doesn't know where to go.
Wind scraping & feathers grinding
Finding, it's probably somewhere I am searching.
It screeches loud, earsplitting sing
I am the wreck-feathered wing.
Ivory colored, majestic feathers
Flapping gracefully, growing steadier.
Each time it wags, one might fall
Uncaring; only one fell--not all.
Hence each fallen feather, descending down
Will find their way onto defiled ground.
It doesn't know because it can't see
Each feathers are like a family.
One will define, will represent
Many meanings, certain element
Of power & weakness, failure & hope
Of grieving forever, or knowing to cope.
Lose a feather, that means will go
Learn how to right wrong, then it will again grow.
You find your ways with waiting still
That strange ability, your patient skill.
Just waiting, although doing nothing
Until they grow, feather of sheer hoping.
Then again... you lose what you grew
Still you're stubborn, it'll grow again, you knew.
Standing there at the morn's moist dew
Starting over, to something fresh & new.
Such lucky birds flying up so high
Upward, downward, in the sky.
And here I am, like a leftover feast
With no more feathers... a naked beast.

Great read...like a story. I like how you compared yourself (I'm assuming the write is you...but of course I could be wrong) to an "ivory colored bird". Beautiful in your descriptions, so sad though. The ending really got me...
"And here I am, like a leftover feast
With no more feathers... a naked beast"
Thanks for sharing.
Peace, Laura |
