One Feather

one feather
one soft feather


one soft feather
hanging in the breeze
caught upon a weed

violet colours
shining amongst the green
which try to choke it
and pull it down
But it is strong
and it`s feathery
fingers cling
...tight...
...strong....



beautiful, as always Lily

late night wishes of peace and happy dreams

so fragile it was
beckoning my eye
i thought the wind
to catch it and carry
it off at any moment
but it clung on.. strong
i wondered if it had
fluttered from the sky
shed, not needed anymore
or if a bird had brushed by
the ready weeds

thanks Ash.. for your words, for you....

it was like watching a
flower cry
shedding its petals
tears that fell from
the sky
feathers that fell from
the bird
as it flew by
its tears not
felt but its feathers....



noticed!


NO! Thank YOU Lily

the beautiful Dusk ~ (with the chloro-form ~ CRACKED UP when Norm said that lol)

A feather in a hat.. i wonder why people do that.. is it a mating ritual or an Acubra bloke thing? .. dun see a lot of women with feathers in their hats....

You know feathers are haunting my life lol .. a friend's feather doona busts open; i made the mistake of opening a pack of mixed black and white ones for the (adorable <- i have to say that) imp.. now they are all over my house.. but i must say; this one is precious... i looked today; it's still there...

my writing is all over the place .. bleh

merci belle w/embrasse...

Arrr. The cat licked the feather to the weed, as the old dog barked at the tree, and why is my neighbours elephant always staring at me?

'coz last time it looked it got lucky

Utterly magnificent photo - something truly within my style, something ordinary made to look out of the ordinary, a mysterious moment captured in word and image....

ordinary to eXtra-ordinary
grateful to capture the soft
the discarded; once a part...

many thanks Kleonaptra
