Part III



When the lights flickered
out
and the moon rose high,



the shadows grew long,
and the
haunting flute song 
of 
the last hermit thrush
was  heard,

It was then that
I knew,




it was then that I realized
that was once ,


I and the bird






 had merged..somehow,




until


 I was the bird
and,


the bird became me.

  1. Nice to have a sequel!

    The forest here is full of Hermit Thrushes.... they come to the moss garden and serenade me day and evening. Its nice to be reminded that they will soon be here again, filling the mornings with that amazing, fluting.... such a haunting song. Hard to imagine today as the snow falls again!

  5. The paintings with the heart-birds are really special! Different drawings, paintings, feelings and nature-photos come together to a reality of art, soul and life like a puzzle. They come together to a great message. The message-bearer is you and the bird(s).

  7. Yes, of course - you started the story and then finished it. Each became part of a whole.
