Short Aquila Poems

My Aquila
Rested against a tree
With a little magic
and a little wine
We snuggled down
And I made him mine


Together we dreamt
Of Moondust trails
The way west
To find our place
Amongst the trees
Our nest
 

It is soon
I feel it within
We have come so far
We are near
To the place
Of The Rising Moon...

I rode with Aquila
Across the meadows
Through the trees
His love,
Is all I need
 

That I chose
A man
That carried a longbow
In that clearing
I stepped in from the night
 

Summer nights
Are not the same
Without him
Summer days
With Aquila
Sublime


Faerie magic
In this joining
Of stars
Magic
Nature
And love...

She cried 
All the tears 
Of her body 
Of his heart 
Of her mind 
Until 
Only his soul 
Can reveal herself 
Can transform himself 
In the flood of the Nile

This is the way it is 
That flew away
The first Imperial Aquila
Lonely 
Heavenly
Invisibly
In search of fourteen pieces
Stolen
Scattered
Dismembered 

Of her Love

The stream left the mountain
Left the magic fountain
Through rocks, small
Through rocks, tall
It became a waterfall

I took a drink
From my cupped hand
The stream of sighs
Enveloped the magic in me
For, here it lies

The water flowed to me
Of its own will
Tumbling streams
Awakening dreams
Deep inside
Completely

Truth and love 
Awoke in me
Aquila
Carrier of the longbow
Began to see...

I sang to my Aquila
Of amethysts 
Soft light
Eagle feathers
Of magic

 
He held me
In more ways
Then he knew
I felt his heart
Through his eyes
Deep and blue

 
That we have our castle
In the valley of the stars
The Place Of The Rising Moon
Where I searched
Yet could never find
I found ,with Aquila
That love
Magic too
Is revealed 
When it is needed
Destinies and journeys
Forever sealed
With you...

Magic can never be undone
This is the way
Of stars
Of magic
Of me
My journey with Aquila
Has begun

 
We left that dark wood
Where together
We stood
We fought
The Wraiths’ night
My Aquila
His mighty longbow
That love
Always survives the onslaught

 
To  find a Shadowfire
In the Wraiths’ night
I carried it carefully
It must be given
When the time is right

 
This is the way
Of stars
Magic
Of me...

Ride with me
My Aquila

To feel you close

Warm breath on my neck

 

Ride with me

My Aquila

Upon a horse

To sunsets

Red and gold

 

Ride with me

My Aquila

Through stars

Journeys’ made

Our love

Never to fade

 

Ride with me

My Aquila

Upon a horse

To soft dawn light

Escaping the night

 

Ride with me

My Aquila

For, you fly

In my heart

Upon golden wings

My heart sings...

Aquila picked my favourite flowers
Wove them in to my hair
I felt his love
Everywhere
 

To feel him
In so many ways
The way we stood
Banishing the Wraiths’ night
In soft amethyst light
In that wood

 
In his heart lay
The words
Of a poet
In his love
A perfect Heartstone 
Shone
I felt it everyday

 
In soft firelight
At the end of our day
I could lie with my head
Upon his chest
Feel the heart beating for me
Knowing always
He loves me completely...
