Kim Van Breda Poet Personification

Aquila

AQUILA

Aquila
constellations combinations 
permutation patterns her plight
of
water and flight

Eagle
wings soaring powerfully
wind ravages plummeting
her
freedom light


Feather
spiralling slowly lingering
breeze floats cradle embracing 
single
winged slight 

River
rippling chasing competitions
downward streams drive forward
dreams
floating white

Aquila
unrestrained in naked swim
cooling tranquil Aquarian
finds
Eagles height



And…..

With
Feathered Quill
Water and flight
Write

*(“Aquila” is the Latin and Romance language word for “Eagle” representing the bird carrying “Jupiter’s” thunderbolts in Greco-Roman Mythology—the constellation of Aquarius—)

Emile Pinet May 14, 2015 at 8:13 AM A totally different and creative approach to painting an eagle with poetic brush. You find the beauty so well hidden from the eyes of most people and you buff it up so that it shines for all to see. Emile. #7 Kim Van Breda May 14, 2015 at 9:25 AM Thank you Emile. Such encouragement coming from your expertise in writing means a lot to me xx
