    • Finding my wings. Be they of feather or leather, I shall wear them with pride, for they are my own..

    Land of the heart

    Like the rabbit, caught in the crucifix shadow of the owl,

    I am frozen in fear and wonder.

    To see the landscape we have created,

    through both chaos and peace.


    Cradleing silence I wait for the day,

    storms of your fury or the touch of your passion.

    Either will suffice the wait,

    change the terrian with mountians or brooks.


    The soft satin winds of your praise,

    smoothing stone easily as sand.

    The scarlet laughter of your madness,

    ripping trenches through the terrian.


    Scarred and brutal, smooth as glass,

    I hunker in the awe of our world.

    Tangled reflections of yesterday,

    eating slowly away at the visions of tommorow.

    The imagery is incredible. Very moving. And there seem to be so many layers of meaning, just waiting to be unraveled!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
