"I see beyond," she says.
"I see with the vision
of an Eagle.What many
do not see...I see."

And, she offers her arm
to the Eagle...as he hovers
in weightless flight.She
offers more than a perch
.....it is a connection
with the brave spirits
of mighty men, of warriors.
Her heart is gladdened
as the Eagle passes over
.....just a shadow
haunting her heart
with surprise,
with secret admiration.
She sees herself floating
weightlessly in the heavens,
white clouds lifting her
to altitudes only dreamed of.

And, she marvels at
the beauty of her new dark
feathers...glossy brown
with a yellow breastplate.
She and the Eagle sharing in
the secrets of fanciful flight,
~~~~~of gliding strength,

~~~~~~~~and of power.

(smiles) Your heart shines with Native American pride and spirit, sweet friend, you cast the eagle from your palms and light these pages with grace and fervor that light all our spirits with light! (kiss on cheek) I love it, sweet friend, you always paint the most loveliest visions! We all love you so much, sweet friend! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ivy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Ivy, I'm giving this little gem a boost upward because there are many who are going to be sorry they missed it, otherwise...as so many of us here take time, now and then, to watch the eagle fly...

You know how much I love eagles, Ivy...so this poem I found was perfection and filled with visions of freedom and wild flight. *sigh* I love it. **big hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
