Wings


many a story
dance, wisdom, a vengeance told
wings of cranes enfold.

HI ROSEMARIE-

and so it is true - "a vengeance told" we all have such wings, tattered and torn and yet still strong - until one day - they no longer unfold. The journey ends.

Love to you
Gail
peace and hope

Gail,

My son took this photo and upon viewing I felt a 'knowing.' This prompted my research into the symbolism and myths associated with cranes and there it was the 'knowing' defined (http://rosella.apana.org.au/~mlb/cranes/lore.htm#Mythology) and so the haiku in response.

Much love to you dear friend.

Rose Marie

So many connections going on here between us. This is quite interesting. Seems that our paths were meant to cross, at least virtually. I have signed up for your blog, and also as a follower. If you would like to do the same for mine, that would be lovely. Will be interesting to see how the warp and weave of similarities between us continues to manifest.
