In dreams...
I shape shift into an eagle
and cast my shadow
over canyons
and valleys below,
over forests
and mountains
covered with snow.

In dreams...
I unfurl my bat wings
and soar
into the night,
beyond
the edge of darkness
into the cosmic light.

In dreams...
I flutter
my fairy wings
and gift little children
with wishes and dreams.
The magical things
that are what they seem.

                Ida Werrett

Oh, dear Ida, how lovely is this! One of my very favorite of yours. I also fly in dreams and I understand what it feels like!

Fly on ... one day we might meet above the Alps or above the Gran Canyon ...

Love and hugs.

Ida,

This is one of my favorites too.  It's wonderful and shows your imagination - may I fly with you?

I'd love to find some:

"magical things (and a few people)
that are what they seem(!)"

MUCH applause for this 'penning' !!

Visually such  a lovely poem.  I especially like the ending lines...that they are what they seem...without complexity or hidden meanings...enjoyed the read~

My dear Ida Belle, may I join you on your flights?!? Pretty please with honey all over it?

This was magical! The image of the eagle casting its shadow "over canyons and valleys below,over forests and mountains covered with snow." ~ was stunning! I could see it and the vision was awesome!

You are a talented and multi-faceted writer ~ and spirit!

Love & Spirit Light Flight,

Linda

To night wings and fairy dust! I have not soared for a while, but you took on a dream journey in this one...

Thank you all so much for your responses, I have been very busy dealing with some health issues and haven't been on the site much lately. It was a happy surprise to see this one return.
