Gift of the Seagull

by Munda


A lonely seagull flies the winds
Majestic... gliding... motionless wings          
A single screech sounds from the sky
Come fly with me... come here and fly...

My spirit floats to be a part
I feel the beating of its heart
My soul, one with this bird of sea
Now knows the meaning to fly free

I feel the winds caress my soul
And soar the streams without a goal
My being trembles of delight
A treasure I received tonight

The seagull's flight of soaring high
The gift of what it means to fly

Did you read Richard Bach's jonathan seagull
THis poem reminded me of it a lot
It is simply lovely...great and so inspiring to all of us if we take flight and soar like them...
I loved it

If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves
from which evolves the light...

Hi Munda,

Great theme. How wonderful it would be to be able to fly as free as the seagull.

Thanks,
Pete
