I am the hush before a winter dawn,
moonlight cloaked across a sleeping field.
I catch the sun in quiet particles,
mirrors of truths you never thought to hold.

I am the glint in a falcon’s eye,
the frost that seals an unspoken vow--
quiet ,

fly free, falcon

ridge obscure burnt slate
leap of faith a second wind
drop and plumes spread wide

Falcon Fuel

Sycophants, thy future.
On what does it depend?
Gold upon the ground, be pure!
River, yield thy bend!

Tormented, ye prophets?
Pleiades, rescue me!
Toolshed, art thou Tophet's?
Fly, O fancy-free...

Gain upon in rhythm?
By what right, friend and foe?
Onward, black abysm!
Dark backward, well ... Although ...

Reign of conquerors endless!
On this doth all things hinge!
Forward, O ye stark friendless!
Heart within all, twinge!

White sand,

Falcon Quintilla

A hunter swift with eye that gleams
this Falcon's life's not what it seems.
Once endangered the Falcon cries
rarely heard in Western skies,
now seen up high in city dreams.

The Corpus Christi Carol
anonymous Middle English poem
translation by Michael R. Burch

He bore him up, he bore him down,
He bore him into an orchard brown.
Lully, lullay, lully, lullay!
The falcon has borne my mate away.

In that orchard there stood a hall
Hanged all over with purple and pall.
Lully, lullay, lully, lullay!
The falcon has borne my mate away.

Falcon Chooses Prey

Falcon heard mouse from sixty-six feet
Thought the creature gave a curious tweet
Young mouse’s fear was his main feature.
Falcon instantly chose a new creature
His intended prey was totally unaware
As rabbit got swooped up into the air

Grandmas Button Box

Grandma’s button box and first aid kit were both mainstays in the kitchen.
We knew she had everything to help us if we were hurting or itch'n.
If we tore up our pants, got poison ivy or ripped a button off our coat,
She could have us fixed up in seconds, and then milk a cow or a

Dan's Favorite Birds - 9 of 10 - Peregrine Falcon

The peregrine falcon inspires fear
In 'most every bird, far and near,
Such air pressure as he swoops so fast!
Three eyelids protect him from the blast.

why does she keep that falcon around

Why does she keep that falcon around?
I heard this in a whisper, a quiet inquisitive sound.
We watched as the falcon ran over to give her a light.
I guess that explains things, I said; it was quite a sight.

Kestrel Falcon

    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, showcased on big screenery-
rewards God with a show bow and

FALCON

I love my diet, rich in protein,
Of snakes, squirrels, doves, and rabbits most lean.
I tell you this, and I am on the square,
Furry mammals delight beyond compare.

The swiftest, sleekest raptor in the sky,
I soar wide, circling with the sharpest eye.
As feathered death I swooped upon my prey,
But the rat found a hole and got away.

As

The Falcon

I can recall another lifetime, one where I could fly
Gazing down upon the earth, moonlight glinting in my eye
A king among the stars with a piercing call that could terrify
I was once a mighty falcon, a raptor of the sky
 
Soaring majestically brought exhilarating thrills
Cruising deep valleys and magnificent hills
Preparation for the hunt was how

Captain America and the Falcon 160

He was defeated 
by Captain America's all-weather paint
as he was the 
furthest thing from a saint

His name was Solarr 
and he drew his power from the sun
He would blast beams of energy
like a full-powered gun

He's most likely now
in a lowly dimmed cell
where he can cause no more damage
in this place he now dwells

He thought he

Wolf Totem

I breathe fire like a dragon killing demons
And I fight hard to kill the devils in my heart
I blow steam like an engine running through the night
Keep pumping ‘else my motor’s gonna fall apart

I survey down like a falcon during midday
Looking for my next meal, seeking resolution
And I charge on with a wolf totem within
