Elegant Eagle

predators beware
for this eagle owns the skies
free to spread her wings
high above the mountain tops
this elegant eagle flies

    Very well done. Can just see the beauty, not only in this poem, but as the Eagle flies over mother earth herself. Love it!!

    Great to see someone write a tanka-and such a good one! One can feel the freedom of flight and primal beauty.

    Not entirely sure what a tanka entails but I do know that I really liked this poem. Spread your wings my little, little, eagle.
