WINGS

When wings become tired and the bird expires clear of the clouds simply catch the nearly weightless feathers and love the softness falling -  share it with what the bird is now. It matters not where or when the bird flew, nor even how, for it is not as it was then but always as it is now: an act not dissimilar to catching the winds which denude the trees of their leaves, or capturing the peace of deepest sleep or the knowledge that, in spite of all our faults and missteps, we have lived – are living,  and dying in perfection!
