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.

Don't need a whole lot more than that now do we.  Wonderful write and I am glad you reposted it.  I wasn't here when open 2 was up but I know that I have seen this one before.  Must have been a dream or vision lol...sorry to ramble

I must admit that the title drew me in, but the poem was just great!  I wasn't around way back in 'Open 2' either, so this is brand new for me!  Wonderful images and a beautiful thought!
