Thursday thought




is a feather


Death is a feather
Compared to the mountain size
Life happening here

is a feather big
When compared to a mountain
You tell me, is it

While you ponder that
Think on how others may view
What you think is big

  2. The Importance Of Feathers

    Owl has a bird brain
    inside a bird skull with eyes
    that stare straight ahead.
    Owl has her feathers
    all smoothed and shapely, designs
    that cry predation
    to the small creatures
    who scuttle in the dim time
    after the sun sets.
    If you remove all
    the feathers you will not see
    owl at all but see
    a tiny bird skull
    atop a scrawny body
    all bones, beak and claws.

  3. A feather can be weighty...if it is like the straw that broke the camel's back.
    Just as a mountain can be a new adventure ...

    It's all about perspective. :}

  4. I was just thinking about how much paperwork it takes to die as opposed to giving birth...how much paperwork is involved in divorce as opposed to marriage. The ends of things are mountains, compared to the beginning. And yet you are so right. Death is a feather compared to this mountain I am living now.
