Kamama Adanvdo

Kamama Adanvdo 

Some like to howl with the wolves
In the cool moonlight
Feeling their ancient connection
What a glorious sight!

Some like to soar with the eagles
Above the mountain peaks
Closer to Grandfather 
And hear what his heart speaks.

Some like to swim in the waters
Like the salmon and rainbow trout
Gaining strength against life's currents
For them, is what it's all about

Some like to perch like the owl
From the elder trees
And roost in peaceful solitude
To truly feel at ease.

Some like to be as the jaguar
They move about with stealth and grace
As a restless, free spirit
They travel from place to place.

Some like to be as the spring frog
Singing up rain for cleansing
Content to remain exactly where they are
Each day is their new beginning.

Some prefer to be the turtle
Slow and steady is their pace
They understand life's evolving circle
Is not a hurried, rat race.

I, however, like to hover and float
With hummingbird and butterfly
Lightly touching with gentle wings
And many colors to diversify.

I love your prose! 7 for this appealing offering. You have touched me both deeply and lightly, and delightfully, like a hummingbird and butterfly xomo
