#feather poems on Hello Poetry

Brianna Duffin Feb 2018

A work of splendor,
God’s personal masterpiece.
As tall and as wide as a treetop song.
White as a winter morning
But only in the center
Gray goose down on the bottom
Blue-tinged on the top half.
Extravagant enough to drown out anything,
Breathtakingly miraculous
The woman it shelters, on the other hand…
A plain creature of no spectacles, average beauty
The cape this showwoman has donned
Doesn’t match who she is.
Which makes them both far more beautiful to me.

Feather

Feathers in the wind
Crashing to the ground
Plucked from a bird who's sinned
Never again to be found
tears shall be shed
For a piece that has been lost
Her actions made it fled
for which she never knew the cost
Oh though its gone and probably dead
It will move on to more
Feather to the ground
It has been lost soon to be found

A bit of an older one so a bit amatuerish in wording but hey may as well chuck it up

Hope

Hope
Is a feather lurking on a stem
From the bird that left for a foreigner wind
Whispering to you but you can barely hear,
"Go back, I have nothing to give you..."

Hope is catastrophe. It's ruse.

A Feather

Grab a feather
                      to heal your heart.
Grab some light
                      feeling  a suns spark.
And a small feather
                       can release dark
With intent
                        you'll fly like a lark.

Grab a feather
to take off like bird
Grab some love
to integrate loves word.

And a small feather
comes as bird’s gift.
With prayer
in peace you’ll drift.

Inspired by Vulpes poem Many thanks.

How to be a good poet

Grab a feather
                                            Open your soul.

Grab some paper
                                         Make it your own.

And a small feather
                                             Shall be a brush,

And a small paper
                                        Your poems' canvas.

Birds of A Feather (Terzanelle)

birds of the same disposition*
all gathering in a collective band
one feather is their rendition

they'll always be of this strand
never deviating at anytime
all gathering in a collective band

everyone of them an akin dime
minted by the exacting coin press
never deviating at anytime

they're keeping a single address
companions of an only kind
minted by the exacting coin press

none are really hard to find
assembling neath a unified wing
companions of an only kind

can you hear the old adage sing
assembling neath a unified wing
birds of the same disposition
*one feather is their rendition

liberation sans expectation

a feather flying,
hesitantly in the breeze;
freedom from the bird?

fin

my hands demand to feel your skin
feather light touches
but our line is so thin
i use my own as crutches
