On it's wings it came, slicing through clouds pewter, preceding the shaft that opened up behind it's tail, it's very own searchlight stretching just ahead of the gull as it wiffled wildly. The moment transporting me to a safe place, away from a mind distant, flung on the wind far like the gulls that animate my lonely skies marbled paper. This world is fading away, along with everything it craves. But if you do the will of God, you will live forever... 1 John 2:17 |

Linda..thank you very much for the gull picture...dont you think that gulls almost look lonely when flying alone? The way they fly in slow motion almost seems solemn? Perhaps it is just the way i was feeling when i saw them for the poem..dont listen to me.. May God bless you for your kindness.. Goldenrose. This world is fading away, along with everything it craves. But if you do the will of God, you will live forever... 1 John 2:17 |

Yes, I do agree that a lone gull looks lonely. However, this one was with dozens of other gulls! lol I cropped and then enlarged it so that I could single this one out! I am an avid seagull watcher! I have a gorgeous porcelain one that I adore. I have written about seagulls and painted them as well. Your poem was lovely and I shall now take the opportunity to save it! Love & Seagull Light, Linda |
