Windwalker

I knew a Tiger who swam with dolphins along the razor’s edge and meditated with a yellow bird under his honey’s tree in a west coast garden. A rare breed from an indigenous creed. His poetic wisdom written with zen. He sung his songs in syllables: 5-7-5 and 5-7-5-7-7. His beloved’s last kiss left him fragrant roses when she crossed over. Where did our Windwalker go? Lava beads, sky lanterns, and a beautiful rainbow. Is he crying with Coyotes to the moon or on heaven’s Windswept Shore? I knew a Tiger who walked with the wind. by Berteena Harmony of the Soul PoetrySoup Poem of the Day - January 29, 2019

How did I miss this fine POTD. What great descriptions of a crying soul yearning for the one lost. My heart bleeds through my eyes. You have the talent it takes to be a top performer here and I look forward to reading more of your work. Have a great day.

I am truly honored and blessed to have the privilege of having my poetry selected as Poem of the Day. Thank you all for your kind comments and warm welcoming. This poem is dedicated to my friend, Tiger. He is a wonderful poet and mentor who writes beautiful haiku and micropoetry. Tiger’s precious wife Laura lost her battle with cancer a year ago. He has been away from our Twitter Poetry Community mourning her for several months. We love him and miss him. #LoveLightPeace
