"Flutter"
So near to the ground this hummingbird flew
And by its glittering, honeyed little form,
It was the perfect remedy for wane of enchantment
Its needle-like beak would seemingly, seize nectar from
Hollowed, bowl-shaped, honeysuckle bells
And wings came fluttering; swift in flight yet,
As if a clamor was given power, to their quiver and flutters
My hands clutched to involve praise within
While the color of the skies
Matched the stream of celestial callers
Divinity before me on a stage; elaborate as embroidery
Tonight, blessedness by boons, ground my heart as creative
Deliverance of sort occurs by this contribution
The epitome of angelic alliance revived
Where, certainly expression sets off prayer
And if one listens, pays attention,
The implication highlights companionship
While twilight dons clouds; wears a modest frame
This distant tranquility transforms balance
And as fill of day becomes barren
Yet, hope oversees prolific prune to come
The wings, ahead of time, imposed a conversion
Their stitching of beautification posed outline
Their flutter of down and gossamer, collectively and
With such ease restored labor's intensity
All, while blend of meadow's hues to twilight blues
Brought ecstasy to this hopeful land; a Victory in completion
is found guiding me to, His graceful hand

If I Had Wings
If I had wings,
I’d soar high above the earth
above the trees, above the mountains,
lost in the clouds,
Possibilities - Naani Poem
Butterfly wings
carry the tenderest things,
like a child's dream
seeking its first flight.
by G E Barr
Oh that I were a winged dove
Chopping through the ebony
Of evening
Toward your window
Would it be open for me
That I may
“Under your wings”
Under your wing's Lord will I abide
Help me to seek your face all the days of my life
Lord,
