Notes About The Poem

A Fearsome Nominee

A FEARSOME NOMINEE

If you could only see this breath taking panoramic view from the sky,
Soaring with me in thermals, my eagle eye searching below to dine,
You could tag me whilst flying through contours of clouds up high, 
And we’d dive down together to mother earth, spotting a meal fine!

Soaring with me in thermals, my eagle eye searching below to dine,
Let chaos rule beneath, my heart has been bathed in a soothing balm,
And we’d dive down together to mother earth, spotting a meal fine!
Today the Eagle took his mate, 'Take care my beauty' says he 'be calm'.

Let chaos rule beneath, my heart has been bathed in a soothing balm,
For all the animals on earth and birds of the air, have done no wrong!
Today the Eagle took his mate, 'Take care my beauty' says he 'be calm'.
I, His majesty of the skies, fearsome, will stop chaos and lead the strong.

For all the animals on earth and birds of the air, have done no wrong!
You could tag me whilst flying through contours of clouds up high, 
I, His majesty of the skies, fearsome, will stop chaos and lead the strong.
If you could only see this breath taking panoramic view from the sky.

Your eagle soars with power, wisdom, coexistence. I tried a pantoum, but settled for a COUPLET, yesterday. Your FORM did inspire me. Shalom /Peace/IRENE!

Anil, my new and dear friend, yes Shalom, Peace, Irene for certain, our world has been turned upside down, only the eagle in the skies is wise and rules from the Heavens, guided by His Maker. Blessings, Jennifer.

Hello Jennifer … the eagle is truly the ruler of the skies and determines that only the strong survive in the kingdom below. I enjoyed the way you formed this poem Jennifer - thank you - Lindsay

Hello Jennifer, I have read this poem several times, I am wondering is this bird an owl? or another breed of bird? Owls do hunt at night. I have seen an eagle hunt during the day. Be safe. Enjoy your day my friend.

Hi Besma, my dear dear friend and soul sister, your comment surpasses my poem in eloquence and beauty - thank-you always for your sincere and genuine friendship. Have you ever thought of writing a book, it would do exceptionally well whatever you chose to write about and after having given your family and close friends copies, perhaps you could send me a signed copy from my famous author friend which I would treasure. Keep well and safe Besma, my thoughts are with you. love and hugs, Jennifer
