A Brave Eagle Soars.

by Courageous Dreamer   Feb 7, 2009


Dedicated to my best friend. I love you.

An eagle displaced from his original home,
expands his wings daily to new opportunities,
a mind of many thoughts; he is free at last.
Gracefully he soars with an attitude so rare,
it's impossible for someone to match or compare.
High off the ground, breathing in all happiness.

Eternally lies a soul loaded with tender care and love,
never failing to make those around him feel better,
open hearted touching everyone deeply within,
sucking the sorrow out of their lives with a smile.
This eagle remains brave and strong impacting lives
with positivity, a friend I proudly call mine.

    Temps,

    Title:
    Eagle: Bird of prey, a predator of the sky. It has keen eyesight and is graceful and powerful through the sky. It also hold respect due to it potential danger, as all predators do. We also admire this bird for it is rare and though it is powerful, which commands respect it is also fragile. Your title suggest a person who is free like an eagle, respected, but also fragile and needing help from time to time. I can relate to this, can't you?

    Stanza 1:
    Here we see our male out of his normal comfort, yet in the face of adversity this person front up to it and accepts the challenge. With his incredible resources he excels and goes from strength to strength. He is rightly so a happy man.
    This is written from the perspective of one who is equally proud of him and his achievements.

    Stanza 2:
    Not only does out hero stand tall with his own burden, he also has the strength to make sure others that he cares about are kept safe. His vulnerability is also his strength being able to open up his feelings to those he needs to, only wanting their lives to made better, turning that frown upside down.
    This is a real tribute to a dear friend, one who is lucky to have a friend such as you.

    Well done Temps, this is such a lovely heart felt write. A tribute to a man we all know and love.

    Take care
