Back to earth

 'Back to earth' by Catrin Welz-Stein
'Back to earth' by Catrin Welz-Stein


The feather hovers above my path.
It soars amongst clouds of winter scores,
songs and scriptures;
and if I stretch the arms -
I tap into soft safe nest of love
and wisdom;
set by fleeting caprice of child,
inner conflict between earth and sky,
solved yet yield to grounding shell,
adjourned feathered wing.
