The Tether
Man made kite can't fly without a tether.
Free as a bird; like a hawk I did fly,
With claws and no malice; ripped a gash in the sky.
Free as a bird; like a vulture I did soar,
Impunity and death was my legacy and lore!
Free as a bird; like an owl I would descend,
Grasping the rodent that was never to win.
Free as a bird; like a sparrow I did play!
Fighting with others at the end of the day.
Free as a bird; like a seagull on the wing,
Plucked up my meals, the flying theft king!
Free as a bird; I sang songs of the loon,
Never would I leave the placid lagoon.
Free as a bird; the ostrich never flew,
Running forever; the experience, never new!
Free as a bird; like a kite in the winds!
Holds the string, does my wife, forever friends!

Is that a play on words. capture their freedom? lol! Thank You SO much for your kind words and taking the time to read it! I love animals and try to empathize with them !
Thank You ! Observing animals is one of my most cherished past times I feel we can learn a lot from their behavior. I believe they have spirits just as we do, and all things are evidence of an omniscient creator.
