Wizard Dream Feather

Wizard Dream Feather

Four ancient stone cups filled with potions
Distinctly different spells filled to the top
Consumed by a bearded, ancient, wrinkled man
Downed from left to right in perfect sequential order
Down to the wizard mystic world enchantment spot
Old man breaths in powdered breath of blue
Above a pewter plate of silver gray
Molecules take on the magic of the mystic dish
Commingled atoms swirling
Wood table brightly lighted in the lab/library room
The dream feather comes from within
Hovers above the empty saucer sacred air
From nothing appears a spark of life
Nowhere in nature is it found but floating there
Empty plate displays a bird like invention clear
Plume curved slightly up and tall takes form
Stands two inches high in full rotation slow
Spiral like, soft on the edges brown and light
Scarlet red fills in the feather center
Neon yellows round out the shape
The lesson of the day is full deduction
Where does this rare duck specimen belong?
What is the origin wright or wrong? 
This ornithological exercise still to be determined
Measured to conclusions on feathered strength
Wizard dreams puzzle to that end

Hi Miraj, Thank you so much. I rarely dream or remember dreams. I had a vivid dream 2 nights ago about being a member of a bird association or organization, studying feathers, drinking powder and liquid potions and dissecting feathers from different species of birds. I guess I was influenced by that experience. Thanks again for commenting. Glad you liked it. Have a great day. Earl
