ZMP ~ Night Wisdom

Snow colored feathers over feathers
in chilly wind weather
On a noiseless flight,
talons of strength and might
stained by age
and by death
survival justifies its right.

A drift on a drifting sightless current
harmony in wings filtering air fluid
a kite of stealth on a death ride
white wisdom's descent, a mystical glide
by Athena
and by Minerva
a warriors skills are not pride.

Wings fold, cup and cover
hooked beak stabbing in hover
zero visibility without a sun
prey rarely sees the hunter come
by feasting on death
a living process
an owl's lament is night's wisdom

With night's vision

comes night's wisdom;

and once again,

well done...

my input....

has hovered like an eagle over this, and here are my highlights of choice:

stained by age

and by death

survival justifies its right.

and -

zero visibility without a sun

********

just some rambling here. sometimes zero visibility is a good thing, it can make one use instincts better. sounds good anyway.......nicely done art.......don

I saw this on the thread, and here again it takes my breathe ~ Just a powerful write and so emotional!!

Grabbs your heart and just stopps ...

feeling beats echooooing. Love the imagery, sadness too. Just a wonderful, breath taking ride ...

Art, this is one of those that one wants to read over and over. Just classic writing/poetry at its best, if you ask me !
