Voiceless Intonations

Given light and life
Myriad skies the glide way
Heavens highway
Given grace on wind trail
Where singers sound sail
Unpracticed swingers wail
Ancient form evolves the storm
The down of birth and warmth
Upturned by south true north
Sleek back of Raven black
Deep blue of Heron too
The eagle gold, gone bald the cold
In each a single speech of key notes told
King Fisher by the ounce
Calls its dinner pound for pounce
Or hum the nervous jitter
Jug and bitter sweet
That time has made align
The thrill of Hawk
Majestic squawk
In prism gown, each plume renown
Of rainbow shine upon the line ‘tis said
Oh mystery appears each rent or stead
Together merge the moments last and fled
Speaks loudest in the voice
Of butterfly

TD - What a symphony of sound, but I would not call it intonations -- I thought it was quite in tune!
