Wind Birds

 

Where rivers flow from mountain falls

In the mist where myths do enthrall

Of wind birds high in still blue skies 

To glide aloft in pale sunrise 

With haunting cries the wind birds fly

Silhouettes in towering sky

With beat of wings the winds are borne

Across the lands and seas as storms

Upon the lands strong trees do bow 

Against the storms the winds bestow 

Upon the seas the waves do rouse

As wind birds high though sky carouse 

These legends of the wind endow

That people to the wind birds bow

Just beautiful! Have always been fascinated by watching birds flying, especially raptors, and seeing how they use the wind rather than fighting against it.
