Oh so lovely!
There it is not gone! Reminds me of OtterPond :)
Beautiful images and the second stanza is absolute gold. Love the sand dollar reference.

You are very kind! Thanks.
Ms. Feather and I have known each other under other names and other times. She is Soaring now, and I am mostly silent. So fun to lurk, though!

The bentfeather became aligned with time
she learned to soar with her feathers
to lofty heights, grounded no more.
June helps this old bird
to wing among the most delicious places
as a Moon Child wonts
not bond by earthly duties
free to soar and soar again,
as the Summer Solstice draws neigh.
To: Soaring Feather
So nice, dearest! Yes, you have certainly attained altitude to match your attitude. It’s so lovely, isn’t it, the view from above?

For My Hawk And Playmate - To My True Kindred Spirit

Come dance with me
in the wind and the weather
holding fast
we tumble through heather
purple, gold, opal, white,
new discovered
by dawn's fresh light.
Come laugh with me
til breath is scant
our cheeks blood red
with merriment.
Eyes aglow, mischief bright
the other's joy
brings each delight.
Answer to Lenchen by Hawk:
To my true kindred spirit:
I will dance with you
in the wind and the weather,
holding you tight as we tumble through heather.
May the dance last forever,
and may time be abolished
could I say something clever
so all doubts be demolished?
I will laugh without rest
'til my lungs are screaming
will consider it best
to be trusting and dreaming.
Eyes aglow with a shimmer,
like the children we are,
as we dance in the glimmer
of the morning - not far.
As I hold your sweet hand
and look into your eyes,
as we dance through the land,
as we watch the sun rise.
Now I know what I've missed
'cause it did not ring true:
As children we've kissed
and this child loves you.
And wherever you go
when your heart wants to smile,
I will never say 'NO'
to the very last mile.

That painting is definitely soul-food!
On that note, I shall become the girl with the pink bucket, kick off my shoes and take doggie to the beach!
Everything else can wait.

Precious poem, just precious.
Thank You, Lady Jag.
To: starbase
Starbase, I tried to find a ship at a waterfall and something resembling your quote, but had no luck, so here's a substitute.

Indeed..It’s a beach dreamin’ day for me and your poem recalled some favorite walks..I have kept many found treasures and remember which beach they came from.
