Canadian Wild

I would if I could, take a touch of black
a bit of white and gray on my back,
feathers and soft down to make me soar,
and then I would ask for one thing more.

I would if I could, take my forever love
and wing with him ever so high above
tenderly calling out to my life’s mate
together in life, then at heaven’s gate.

I would if I could, be this creature
for this lovely bird has a special feature
the geese mate for life, up to heaven’s door
and for a life’s love, I’d not ask anything more.

Thank you all for leaving footprints!!

Sunshine I loved it! It touched me. This was awesome. Well written. But I can't really explain, I was in awe!

I loved this! I had forgotten that little
piece of trivia about our feathered friends,
gee what would this world be like if humans
had that kind of loyalty?

Thanks, Hoot!
Whtdove, amazing creatures, hey?
Julie, 'zactly!

But, now that I've said that, I'm sure to get some flack. Oh well...

Love this Sunshine. Canadian geese are really lovely birds - there are a lot of birds/animals that mate for life..wolves also right?
