I Dreamed of Eagles |

I Dreamed of Eagles I dreamed of eagles, soaring high And screaming fiercely from the sky. I watched their wingtips as they drew Big circles there, against the blue. They screamed again; dove out of sight, Just dropping from their dizzy height. The hills and trees obscured my view. I couldn't see what happened to The eagles or the prey they sought. Odd moments, all day long, I thought About how beautiful they seemed. Though I see real ones, these I dreamed Were greater, grander and I feel Subconsciously, they might conceal Some message for me, but from where? I'll leave the image of them there Within that place inside I keep, The unexplainable and deep! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (08-22-2003 09:41 PM).] |

I'll leave the image of them there Within that place inside I keep, The unexplainable and deep! I have never seen an eagle and I can't even imagine the thrill of it! They must be very grand, whether in your mind or as they fly across the sky. The line I highlighted is just fabulous. I loved this poem.

So majestic they are to see in flight. Like the trees, and mountains they soar above. This was beautiful!! Thanks for the images that brought back the reminder how majestic Gods wonders are! Very nice. SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

Marti: I am fortunate to live where eagles are plentiful and never tire of watching them. In December every year, we have an influx of traveling eagles who come to Lake Coeur d'Alene for the kokanee salmon run and it is a sight to see! They perch in the high trees along the bay, close to where we live and make swooping dives to pick up fish from just under the surface of the water. It's wonderful to see. Thanks for your lovely comments. Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |

Beautiful Betty Lou! What amazes me most about them is how they seem to hover doing "nothing" then dive so fast and can get one small fish so quickly and surely. Life is truly amazing. |

Beautifully done. I get a stray eagle or two in my tree tops in the winter. The fish is gone and they are here watching for a wayward duck. I've never seen them actually get their prey. Joyce |

Joyce: We have a couple of eagles who fish in our creeks. Where the two creeks meet, there is a wetlands area and there must be a lot of fish in there, because we see them coming up with fish from their dives. They are really gorgeous birds! Betty Lou Hebert |
