I Am a Hawk: Leap of Faith

On a lonely cliff wings spread wide I am readying to leap. GOD said he would appoint angels to guard my keep. Tired of living in the cold dark of night. I find my soul craving the comforting warmth of light. Images flood my mind of what I will see but how do I learn to trust again my once broken wings? I am shown too many signs that I am meant to soar. That my current circumstances are temporary. I am meant for much more. Look me in the eyes and allow me to wander your soul. Learn the psychology behind the scars that took their toll. Create a world that exist outside of time. Question is...When I look you in the eyes do you get lost in mine? Hawk: visionary power, guardianship, messenger (akin to Mercury - Messenger of the Gods)

I have felt a spiritual connection with hawks for a while. I created my poetry soup account specifically for this contest.

I greatly appreciate the compliment. Grammar was always my weakest subject.

I am happy you like it. Though I must admit I do not know who Soren Kirkegard is. Need to look her up.
