A wondrous display in the meadow
Near a stand of snowy birch,
An eagle on the old cedar fence
Quiescent in his icy perch!
Regal cloak of black and white,
Perception in his clever stare,
Turning his head from side to side
Of all he surveys, he’s aware!
Like a king ruling his empire,
Decorum in his noble display!
My soul is rapt within his gaze,
I cannot move away!
Across the distance he speaks to me,
His spirit calls my name,
Reminding me that we are one
In nature’s vast domain!
Then with a rustle of massive wings
He abruptly rises in flight!
Claiming his rightful place in the sky,
What a truly majestic sight!

Across the distance he speaks to me,
His spirit calls my name,
Reminding me that we are one
In nature’s vast domain!
enbrace the fact that we are all truly one. I guess you can tell I love your poem my friend.
Peace and Love,

Thankfully, I've had the opportunity numerous times in the great northwood, and it still thrills me, each and every time.
