Feathers in the wind appear, in the window of my world, <br />Feathers of some creature passing in the winding swirl! <br /> <br />Feathers to Lift <br />Feathers to Fly <br />Feathers for Warmth <br />Feathers gone By <br /> <br />What would I be with feathers and wings? <br />An angel in heaven who trumpets and sings? <br /> <br />Here as I sit by the seashore of life, <br />The feathers I see are the ones from my wife. <br /> <br />She has come to this life with a zeal for good things, <br />She has grown out her feathers into beautiful wings! <br /> <br />Feathers in the wind appear drifting by, <br />The feathers of her love are released to the sky. <br /> <br />What would I do with some feathers in my life, <br />I'd give them to God to bring back my sweet wife! <br /> <br />I'd give up the heart beating in my fair chest, <br />I'd give up the honor bound up in my test! <br /> <br />What feathers have you found floating in the wind near, <br />Do they bring out a smile or a painful warm tear? <br /> <br />Feathers in the wind have appeared in my view, <br />The feathers that I see are now coming from you!<br /><br />Geody Harman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/feathers-in-the-wind-3/
