Different to caged birds raging

against bars searching for ways out,

sky-borne birds are screaming loud

high above and disengaging

                                                           

from mankind’s belligerent noises,

rising terror and the voices

in some everlasting wars.

 

Some, whose wings are being shattered

and their souls destroyed and scattered

fall from skies like shooting stars.

 

Others, who escape the horror

thrust into the higher levels

where they sing to ban the devils

and to harmonize their outpour.

 

When they reach the outer planets,

they become gods reincarnates 

reigning in far off dimensions.

 

On dark nights you see them glimmer

high above the full moon's shimmer 

waving stars in their ascensions.

This is lovely- the transmutation of shattered birds falling as stars will stay with me.

I mostly come to here to read & learn, the poets are my favorites.

And while dwelling in poet paradise here.... every once in while I find one that captures me & moves me in a soulful sense.

And this is one of those that captured & moved me.... (thx)*
