Whip Her Will or Whippoorwill

Predation of feral cats
Haunting ethereal song
Whippoorwill senses a soul departing

Whippoorwill senses a safe nest for the night though feral cats could use a break. Whip her will needs to get a life... somewhere else. Patrick

Her whip my will. It hurts so good. As I sit here listening to a bird on a wire.

Peace and whiskeysouls,

Sage,
This one got to me on a pesonal level. The name of my memoir is . . AND THE WHIPPOORWILL SANG, and it played a part in my book and as a tagline. The whippoorwill, legend has it, helps a departing soul on its way to heaven. It was my daughter's favorite bird--I like to think it helped her home as well. Is this classic Haiku? It's one of your best short poems--so much said is so few words!!

Somewhat like a soul rising into the cosmos, free and finally saved.
"I'm So lonesome I could Cry" orginally by Johnny Cash comes to mind when I read this lovely poem.

Personally I can relate to the song and your poem...

Peace, love and light,
Amber
