The Flight Of Birds

Look up to the sky and see birds in flight, taking your soul places that you never thought of.

Seagulls, who tell us that a storm is coming as they circle and call before the wind and rain follow them inland from their marine avian kingdom.

Swifts and Swallows so graceful as they criss-cross the sky as we watch from a garden or window.

Charming us with birdsong as we walk through a forest seeing a mother caring for her chicks in their nest, knowing that one day, those yet to fly will be part of some aerial display for our delight,

Watch a murmuration of starlings weaving the dreams of a child or princess in the ballet-like fabric of their precise journey, making shapes that instantly transform from one wondrous image to another, as though Athena, Minerva and Rhapso were creating a heavenly tapestry.

See the flights of birds and let your soul be lifted into the firmament and they take your spirit on journeys through the ether to make you feel one with nature.
