The Cinematic Orchestra - Arrival of the Birds

...and so too, I shall soar...

As I listened soulful tears came forth ... 
the depths of BEING so tenderly touched.

the pulsing heart in the grace of BEING 

the soaring soul known in the sounding of beauty 
hear I the whispers of the wind
chimes with secrets of light
waters in cresting waves of grace
within this heart all to place

such be the passions in spirit's flight 

such be the passions in spirit's flight.

  

Rose Marie Raccioppi 

Poet Laureate 

Orangetown, New York

There are wings upon she soars...

There are wings upon she soars

the calling whispers of the wind
the sweet songbird song
the warmth of the sun
the brilliance of the stars
the waxing and waning of the moon
the ebb and flow of the tides

There are wings upon she soars

the lucid dreams that fill the night
the palette of color
the starkness of the calling canvas
the harmonies of the heart
the beckoning of the soul 
the echo of the word

There are wings upon she soars

the grasping hand of a newborn
the knowing smile of a child
the warmth of a touch
the dream held real
the pulse that is
the pulse that is

There are wings upon she soars
There are wings upon she soars
There are wings upon she soars.

Vistas

above the earth's plains
vistas of splendor abound
I in stillness soar.

Above Wind Swept Fields

Above wind swept fields of crimson and gold
The ascending lark in beauty behold
A soaring ballad trilling sweet
Wind and wings in destiny meet.

Rose Marie Raccioppi


Wheat Field with a Lark, 1887, Museum: Rijksmuseum Van Gogh, Amsterdam, Holland, Vincent Van Gogh, 1853-1890.

It is where he chose to set himself free... Such metaphor in this work of his -
a lone spirit in flight with a loving song, not heard but by his heart alone...

"I know what you said to me..."
with color, paint and brush ...ever this heart you touch...
with knowing and pain beyond conceal ... beauty there be ever to reveal...

In Honor of Lt. Col. Michael L. Murphy, USMC

Perseverance
March 3, 1962 - December 11, 2000

Memories of valor that touch our heart and soul
A place within our Presence the celebration of the goal
To reach our purpose with mind and plan
The birth of vision held by all of man
To hold resolve and endure all claim
To fire the passion beyond the pain
This assertion in what we do
With God's blessing brought to you
Relentless is the path the way
The spirit of perseverance calls this day
In honor of those who soar the heavens above
Our hearts open to God's eternal love.

Rose Marie Raccioppi


Lt. Col. Michael L. Murphy, USMC was killed on the night of Dec. 11, 2000
along with three other brave Marine Warriors
while test piloting the MV22 Osprey Helicopter.
