loved the line
"symphonies spill from your wings like genesis"
feels like something I know about

loved the picture and poem
nicely done

enjoyed the read

Totally breathtaking. Have printed out to savour again and again. To think that Omnipotence and Omnipresence can ever be touched in this way is just SUBLIME. So much rooted in the heart of God is this. A sweet-smelling sacrifice on the altar of love that is bound to reach the heavens. Superbly combustible, this could be an explanation of the Big Bang Theory itself, the purpose behind the mind that HAS to create when touched by love. A feather-filled delight, thank you. K xx

Absolutely lovely!

Dear Aberjhani,

Open the wings, open the heart and embrace the love of our Creator!

Love & Light always and in all ways,
Joseph*

So many quotable lines. . .as always. At the moment, I am torn between "do not frost their tongues with praise" and "your trill annihilates and recreates my heart at will," but every line sings an irresistible song. Great beginning! Even greater ending!! You ROCK!!! Gratefully, 'Pea'

Lovely poem, love can do miracles. Victor

An interesting legend being born?

Ron

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
beautiful
the power of love

If I am a god of some notable stature, it is only
because your soul has given birth to my love,

wow

I enjoyed the reading of "How the Sky God Confessed Love for the Skylark". The conceptual thought and imagery are outstanding, and sublimity glows throughout its lines.

In gratitude and admiration.

I often ask myself where you get your inspiration from..it can't be just from life..can it?
profound work..marvelous thought process and incredibly unique approach..mmmm..as per usual I am in awe..sigh.:)

Saved this one..Thankyou!


Vesna

Another masterpiece from the pen of the sublime sage. One is inspired to spread those wings and soar...outstanding!

I enjoyed this also when I read it at Aberjhani.com. Intriguing reflection on the reciprocity of a god. Denise does beautiful work. Good luck on the sale of your book, Skylark. I've looked forward to its release. ~~Nordette

Hmm, startlingly imaginative. The sky does have a lot of company both mechanical and natural. In this poem my mind was directed to a personified sky expressing his fondness for a particular bird in the only way he could: imagery. Reminded me of Revalations where John could only describe the exquisite wonder he witessed in metaphor.
As I have already said, this muse is startling.

Using our wings is the message here, at least for me. Why do some refuse to spread them? Varied reason, just as there are varied wings. Some from lack of commitment. Others from fear of humiliation or even ridicule. Even those who tentatively spread their wings do so halfheartedly, which is really worse than no wing spread at all. Sometimes I think I belong to that last group. You, on the other hand, spread yours all-encompassing. You touch many people with your over-all presentation of life, but especially I find you most effective when your grit is showing, which, I am happy to say, is often.

Aberjhani, I'm sure you've been told this countless times but you are a genius when it comes to the written word. I'm always in such awe of your descriptive verse. Thanks for sharing your great talent here.
Chanti

Aberjhani this is sheer beauty of thought.
I'm always in awe of talent like yours that
just seems to flow with ease from some
special place within , that only few have
which makes you a rare and laudable poet!

Thank you,
ET

Exquisite, beautiful, exceptional--those are but a few of the words I think of whenever I read your poetry, Aberjhani; very well done! BRAVO!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your Texas friend, Karen Lynn. :D

And I among the precious few get to hear these words in person. Ah, sweet mysstery of life at last I've found thee!

Exceptional poetry in prose form, Aberjhani; beautifully done!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

The ideal dream...a wonderful visual of a Lyre Bird, named for the beautiful tail fearthers of a musical instrument. All beauty here in mystery is the feathered friend of Mayan, Inca and Aztec myths all in this pen. Although he sings his love song into the night, few hear him and those most lukiest flow in passion and fly as two hearts. This is a beauty Aberjahni.
I'm returning to Savannah for Thanksgiving. Perhaps you, me and my daughter Mariah Rowse (here at AD) can have tea somewhere.

Great tribute to the skylark, Abherjani. I can understand the praise as I have stood in wonder at the swift flight and aerodynamic beauty of swallows. Theodore Roethke's poem The Far Field sums it up for me:

I suffered for young birds, for young rabbits caught in the mower,
My grief was not excessive.
For to come upon warblers in early May
Was to foeget time and death:
How they filled the oriole's elm, a twittering restless cloud, all one morning,And I watched and watched till my eyes blurred from the bird shapes,--
Cape May, Blackburnian, Cerulean, --
Moving, elusive as fish, fearless,
Hanging, bunched like young fruit, bending the end branches,
Still for a moment,
Then pitching away in half-flight,
Lighter than finches,
While the wrens bickered and sang in the half-green hedgerows,
And the flicker drummed from his dead tree in the chicken-yard.

******

So, you're in good company, Aberjhani. The skylark and Ted Roethke, high flyers both.

Poet/Author Aberjhani ...

There is something about "How the Sky God Confessed Love for the Skylark" that piques the desire to find those wings we all have hidden and spread them out and fly.

Light and Wisdom ...
