RETURNING TO FEED
walking in a north woods I watch
an eagle, nesting high in tall
trees, glide in over the lake
returning to feed its young.
In silence I stand, my sight fixed
on such a natural spectacle I can
but stare and not forget. Perhaps,
sitting astride their ponies,
generations before me,
cresting a hill during a morning's hunt,
some forefathers
chanced upon such a scene, as I have,
and in doing so were, like I am,
momentarily overcome and sat as transfixed
as I am following the bird's flight
and movement while noticing feather
and form, then sigh as they draw
another breath. I, too, do now.
