Graceful Flight
23 June, 2011
Author: waltzingwithyouforever
I hear him..the whistling sound..
I know I can tell..when hes around
perched up high.. pruning.feathers
strong as steel...
waiting anxiously for his morning meal
I pack his favorite bite in a plastic wrap
fling it across high up in the air
in seconds he takes his regal flair
zooming down gracefully
he clutches his scrap...
heads towards his usual abode
starts nipping devouring the
long awaited food....
And as I watch him soar above high
looking above towards the sky
marveling at the lightening speed of his pace
my magnificent eagle and...
his flight of grace....
------- Author's Notes -------
I am in love with Eagles..I find them magnificent..and majestic..they rule the sky. |

I have seen em firmly holding the wrap with one claw..and tearing away the plastic to make way to the meat. ..chickadee! how lovely! |
