Poetry Poem: The Feather

By Liam

When your feather is poised

Firm, ready to write

Let the hourglass not delay this flight

Wait not even for heaven, to reach down and inspire

Wait simply for your heart to reach up

And touch this feather of desire.

For when inspired by love

A feather will fly like the airborne dove

Fly to the heart of those misunderstood

Let your words be a quickening to life

Let your writing be a gift from this feather

Which grew for its purpose on the wing

Now let my feather sing
