Never had I heard a flutter so clear!
nor more distinct than the settle of midnight wings;
                    Soft gray wings spreading, fanning  
coming to a gentle fold,  
soon to follow, a nightingale's song,
                           lilting the air.
                 Such a blessed union is rare!
Light and dark shadows tranquilly sharing space
One perfect moment  seemingly forgiving,  
the gentle harmonious embrace,
                          of bird and sky !
Never have I felt so powerful against the night !
no more indefinite than a feather in the wind.
                           My heart beating slow as time
comes to a standstill before the soft caress
                     of a nightingale in flight!
Chiaroscuro moments on the soul
                      oh how I wish that I had wings
to fly and meet him in mid air....
never had I heard a flutter so clear nor a song
                         so very dear to me...
The End.
