Soaring Over There



Soaring! the vision of you diving and floating with your mate high above the interstate gave my morning comute an arial ballet and countable moments of joy.

Connected in flight you two rose and fell like the heavy seas across the window of my ride. Daring, strong and like quicksilver I showed y'all off to my kids on way to office visit.

A broken body lay untouched for weeks your flightless days started by a driver on this lonely interstate leaving us with a pile of feathers me driving by in tears.  Your mate miss you as it searches without soaring.
