if there is a bird,
then I'd say more truly
she wears
the studious wings of eagle,
each step's dominion, her sacred trust

Spiros, this is simultaneously sombre and uplifting, with sombre pre-dominating, but ever, ever beautiful.

.that's nice, Diana..i'm so pleased you
like it..i wasn't sure i understood it at first..but it rings clearer and clearer,
each sip of my coffee..it did, after all,
just come out of me, this hour, still..>>spiros

Spiros, I read it in the light of "Bewildered".

What time is it in your time zone of Canada now? In South Africa, it is 13h10.

Majestic comparison.
Well done!
