Mystical wings, vaporous
fluttering mists surrounding her
in the rocky places,
beneath the swarthy, evergreens...

Arms outstretched, her voice
reverberating off the mountain walls.
Owls flitting by, touching her hair
with their silken, span of feathers.
Anointing her with the power
of yellow eyes, settling quietly on
the tree branches high above.
A moon-eyed owl sitting upon
the bed of her delicate shoulder.
Love-hoots echoing from the shadows,
permeating the soul of...
Nature's statuesque evergreens,
Morning Dove's yearning soul.

She...the sister to the owls
the seeker of wisdom,
~~~the harbinger
of every Lover's heart.

The owls singing wise songs,
filling Nature with
the winged-dreams...

~~~of a Morning Dove, of a sister~~~

I like this, very much, Ivy. Wouldn't it be wonderful if plundering, warring man could see the wisdom of pure woman's wise owl.

I do believe your sister will have heard this lovely piece, thank you I enjoyed it.

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger,
