Renewal of the Spirit

A Poem

The Indian Maiden sits upon the mountain top,
watching the eagle soar.
Closing her eyes,
she sees through the eyes of this majestic bird.

Feeling the wind soar beneath her wings;
she smells the sweet freshness of the air,
and sees with stunning detail the rabbit,
(soon to become a life giving meal)
scurry into a bush.

A blaring sound comes from her throat,
and that of the eagle;
simultaneously,
as the merging begins.

She finds herself lost, inside the spirits being;
spirits shared.

The eagle rests upon a tree top pruning her feathers.
Peace and serenity envelope the two.

The wind dies down.
The maiden returns to her own self.
Renewed;
Full of life, ready to begin a new day.
And silently thanks the eagle.
