Best Falcon Poems

Pain had damaged her wings
in her seemingly endless struggles
beating them against the valley walls,
then, in the last days she made haste 
and climbed to the mountain’s summit
and flew free.

At first I could not see
that the sun and the moon 
were shining on that verdant floor
where...

At the computer sits Dickie McDuff
Searching a password that isn't too tough
    With a cocky demeanor
    He types in 'mywiener'
And the computer says "Not long enough!"...

Watching you atop your tower
for once
wishing not to be you
but to be the dove
on which you prey
to so honourably 
have you take my pain away
I turned
to set this thought to paper
when I looked back
you were gone
and I sank
so sad
to still be there....

Rising of the red dragon,
roaring loud clap of thunder,
wings spread from a trap dungeon,
on top a summit underground well.

An old English Falcon knight,
the bells summon, as the priest
runs out shouting in sheer fright,
a demon has invaded the church.

The Falcon knight rows his boat
out an overlooked...

In the dry places
I wandered,
always seeking,
A soul thirsting for
the coolness of peace,
but never really finding
a lasting place
to call my own.
But upon one such journey,
behold I found a feather
nestled on the ground 
amongst the oak leaves
and acorns.
A falcon feather,
beautiful by any standard
and created for high places.
And...

    She is quite the Mistress of the air, synchronize swimming where Eagles dare-stare, no need for landing batons or clearance, she has her own flare.

She wraiths the hapless night and the brilliance of day, rakes the sky, knowing her beauty laid,...

A peregrine falcon masters the sky
its wings majestically arched with flair
soaring with the elements eye to eye.

In a flurry of speed, it flashes by 
serenely aloof, untethered and rare
a peregrine falcon masters the sky.

Sunlight gilds feathers as soft as a sigh
and flickering flecks ignite in...

The Flight of my Falcon was long and true
Through his Strength and his Love and his Mischief too
Over obstacle fence and tree he flew
I never knew what to expect... it was always something new
Born an unpredictable mutt... I never knew what he would do
Stubborn and...

That look of fierce disdain, nobility! 
That regal plume of chestnut ruddy-brown 
with speckled breast! No hint of weak servility 
besmirched the falcon's fine, imperious frown. 
He loved the way it sat in proud tranquility 
above his desk. He gazed down on the town 
which...

I'm a bird of prey creme de la creme.
On air, I'm like a heat-seeking missile,
a kamikaze airplane swooping down
on prey with lethal precision. 
My large eyes, as sharp as an Eagle's.

Tell the Eagle I said so! 

I can also spot and zero-in on a prey...

Pigeons And Falcon

Thousands of pigeons flock to the Vatican
They are not there for Sunday Mass and prayer
But to perform aerial acrobatics
And to produce droppings from up there
Feathers follow them in the air on hot dry currents
Unpleasant summertime aromas fill St. Peter’s square
People speaking a multitude...

There is a rocket firing off today 
Sending a business adventure trip far away 
With the thunder below 
Up it will go 
Looking to put technology in the sky 
In a late afternoon scripted signature that everyone on the beach will wave bye bye 
Falcon...

Four feet, hanging down
Falcon carrying squirrel
Grey tail, red feathers
Blend together in the wind
Death and Life, merging colors...

Coming from relatively poor family man leaves his home and towards Paris steers
Living behind his mother who because of separation sheds tears
But she knows better life awaits him if he goes but for him she still fears
As man embarks on the journey to join royal...
