On Eagle Wings ~Marge Tindal~ 2000 Through the eagle's eyes I get to see things I have not seen before. A trip to the ocean amidst the sandcastles, overhead an eagle soars. From the cliffs overlooking the ocean he appears as the sun sets low. Dipping softly as he glides along the shoreline that he knows. Searching for his love on the sands of time, wondering where she has gone. Knowing full well that she won't return, leaving him to fly alone. Come share the beauty of the eagle in flight. Soar eagle, soar. Climb aboard his majestic wing as he races along the shore. As swiftly as he came he suddenly veers from my sight. He's gone among the bluff's, nesting till tomorrow's light. On eagle wings I get to fly to places I've never been ... I hope to fly with the eagle and return to the ocean again. *Okay ... when inspiration hits, it just hits. ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

All I have to do is close my eyes I shall not open...for it is not wise To lose a dream as you wrote down To fly with the eagle upon the sky wide crown I like also this poesy For it made me feel so free Thank, you also for your kind words on my art work. The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Makes me long to be that eagle...... Beautiful, Marge, simply beautiful! Denise And slight is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his worth; For he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes or birth.~~~Alice Cary, ~Nobility~ |

Roger- I've been there but once in my life .. and I swear the muse took me there on the flight when writing this one which was inspired by Helmut Becker's posting of The Eagle. Thank you for recognizing a place that the eagle soared in my mind. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
