Their haunting calls is a beautiful part of nature that fits well as the background for beautiful music. Beautiful yet sad write.

I have just been doing a "look up" on loons and found your most lovely poem.
Very touching and made very visual for me.
Don'[ have loons on Lisa Lake here at home, have swans sometimes, mallard ducks, sea gulls. Would like to eventually see a real loon, from your description and photo I truly would.
A beautiful and poignant write my friend. Love lost affects us all, human, birds, and animals alike. There are many animals that mate for life also. I'm sure Mr. Ed could name them all. Having never heard a loon but being a loony, I can imagine the sadness of the cry.
Thank You,
Ann
There is nothing like the tranquility call of the Loon. This hits home as it is our state bird (MN); A 15 mile boat ride,, to my parents cabin,,on Namakan lake, is a hideaway, I have grown with, the beauty,, and the call of the loon, will forever be within me.
I enjoyed this more than you could know.
What a touching observation to make in a poem. I never thought of it, and I love loons--the lonely cry of them up North on a mountain lake, but when you see them here in the South, there always alone and silent. I wonder, do loons mate for life? Beautiful pic, did you take it? You have some many more wonderful poems I have to get to!
best, mike
This is so lovely Walt! EdK would adore this one the loons are his favorites. I have a midi of their sounds they are hauntingly beautiful.Thanks for sharing. Have missed you;-)
Beautifully said and felt Walt!
Relationships of all kinds, feel the utter loneliness and some
have no reason why!
Hang in, I feel sadness
Many warm hugs to YOU!
Love the Loon!
I can so hear that lonely haunting call, a few weaks back I went camping and this simple loon lay off shore the beach almost the entire time singing this same song...sweet.
Information: Did you know that swans are monogamous and that never take another mate should theirs die?
Maybe we should learn a little fedility from the birds, we sure don't learn from each other.

Beautiful pain... that those of us lucky enough to experience love enough that one day we may feel that pain... then the joy of knowing the sun comes up over the horizen never to be dark again. Loved it Walt! Jean

For those whose life together is separated by death, I'm sure they too have a sorrowful song -- until they meet again.
This is a very moving and spiritual write. I'm glad I got to read it and have my life enriched.
