Premium Member Assurance On the Wing
Here again, on the the crest of the eve, 
the sound of them...calling out to me
Their sound of arrival, coming from the crimson sky
The ceremonious cry as they frame the V
Causing me to lift eyes upward
Canadian geese, heading home in springtime mode

I need not fear,...

On the Wing
Like an Olympic diver, a swallow dips towards the  dark Loch.
An aerial athlete of mythical ability,faster than Pegasus.
Summers here and the swallows are winged peacocks. 
Strutting their moves against a clear blue sky. 
A spectacle on the wing to glorify and gratify. 
So soon...

Angels On the Wing
Angels sleep between each snow flake floating down
In slow motion, they know the pure white path by heart
That dances over the humble hills transformed
Into a winter dream like coat that covers wings and scenery
Coming on is the dawn where drifts are born
Angels spirit souls away...

Premium Member Words on the Wing
Words like butterflies take wings, 
As we open our mouths to sing. 
Voices soft or loud and clear, 
Sharing thoughts for all to hear.

Choose your words with gentle care, 
Like picking flowers sweet and fair. 
Speak with kindness, truth, and grace, 
Light-up smiles on every...
