The majesty of the birds of prey, in every aspect of their flight, so poetically by you, brought to light.

Ah, maybe what I thought was a typo in the title is a subtle message... the raptor is unconfined... but you (are) confined! Hood free! Like riding a motorcycle without a helmet?

I pasted this over the definition of rainbow in my old Webster\'s. I don\'t care how much science explains it, nothing comes close ere this. I always thought of a rainbow as something that escaped from a cracked kaleidoscope. Now I know it\'s true.

I understand completely the way raptors can enthrall, Fay. Australia has it\'s wedge tailed eagle - worth a study all its own. A beautiful argument for freedom of flight. Thanks.

And aren\'t they awe inspiring. From infant days our minds wonder at the majesty of flight. To soar, hanging upon the invisible currents, all seeing in the freedom sky, unrestrained.

Give me wings when next this spirit sings to mother earth.

To have reached the end of your fine piece has been a journey through treasure upon treasure for this old crock.
What beauty we behold as nature\'s rainfall meets the sun\'s rays. One wonders what stoneage shamen made of such a sight. Though they, lacking your poetic heart, could not cast a spell such as yours to enduce such revere.

... as much as I value my freedom and liberty, I could very easily spend a lifetime in awe of the prism you have set before these eyes of mine today ...

You\'ve enriched my appreciation of rainbows no end, Fay.
They\'ve always fascinated me (would be pretty sure I\'m not alone either.) but you have added a whole new dimension to my perception of \'em.

\'You, chased secreter of legendary gold,
gigantic crescented arc-perfection
your brilliant mixtures of shaded hues
break raindrops to states
of optic illusion begets human elation.

Stretch out your tracery uncontrolled
oh beauteous vision, protect your
vaulted prism of hidden wholeness.

Rainbow hide what is always your own
from blinded devisers with
pot-of-gold-eyes and stay unmolested.\'
I imagine, a wise parent reading these choice three verses to their beloved child, to instil within them those foundational pillar\'s of self worth..
forgive my rudeness dear Fay, for deigning to rearrange your poetic work, excuse a fool\'s inability to control his enamoured appreciation for your majestic words, by attempting to share his feeble, interpretation - I mean no disrespect by doing so..
thank you for sharing another brilliant read

once more your words - wrap, around me and squeeze what essence of warmth this world has yet to freeze - out..
reminding me:
\'Loving at heart\'s core
suchness is spirit that all
life sings with transcendent
beauty\'..
how wonderful you depict, this stale world of dimming hope..
thank you dear Fay, I bow to your wordsmith\'s depthless mastery!

Definition of \'suchness\': a fundamental, intrinsic, or characteristic quality or condition
Your poem says it all, Fay! Well done, Kudos!

Love that \"forgivness\" is at the center of it, love requires a lot of forgiveness. Very nice Fay.

dusk arising said:

I feel your \'suchness\' of today\'s words is the unconditional love which love itself teaches us.
Odd that today I have had the thoughts of unconditional love brought to me in commenting upon three posts on MPS today. Synchronicity? Or a hangover from valentines... who knows.

Yours today, a wholesome and reassuring read.

I am reposting my comment to Michael’s poem, for it applies to yours equally.

To us, human, on top of the food chain, nature is truly awesome. Every drip of ice melting, every chirp of a chick awakes a certain emotion within us. If we can only learn to hold on to it , for nature already has a lot to deal with, every day.
Maybe, people reading your words will awaken to it.

A buy line to die for.

A warm heart looks beneath the frosty covering and sees the beauty of spring biding its time to refresh with the colours we love.

Doggerel Dave said:

You\'ve almost (but not quite) made me feel nostalgia for that kind of winter to spring, Fay.
Daffs are a particular reference point as I grew one (along with many, many other kids) to take to school as part of the yearly competition.

OHHH! The minds struggle to let go of the dream state to the brightness of lights eventuality and the harsh reality of life it represents, could not be better phrased then by the words woven together by you.
