Two Feathers and a Song They’ve given up on us the ducks all quack and quick eyes have feathered their heads and drawn away from such display The turn about sky blows pieces of us around until my hair is in your hands and your eyes are the sky On some ground of feet we walk around puddles knowing all the while it is we that melted and once took flight across the lake to soar just two feathers and a song |

(smiles) Awwwwwwww, I love this, sweet friend, I love ducks and I just love it when they quack as I always love to go to the lake just to feed them and watch them float across the pond, I especially cry in joy when I see baby ducklings swim behind their parents all in a row! (kiss on cheek) This is breathtaking, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Marti, I believe that Blueserenade described your poetry so well with her reply of: "Your voice just carries in the wind." Warm hugs, Linda |

SweetSis~ I came in search of an afternoon song ... and found the gentle lilt of 'two feathers' lifting me up, carrying me through memories~ There is beauty in all you have known~ Thank you ... thank you for sharing it~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
