Sacred Hawk

Source: WeHeartIt

For a couple of weeks

Each morning as I walked to the barn

A lone hawk circled high above

and disappeared

 

Hawks have been symbols in

my life for years

What did this one mean?

 

This morning I saw a trio

circling in the usual path

of the lone hawk

As I walked under my

dying pecan tree

I heard the rush of

wind over wings and

there it was …

right above my head

not threatening

but …

flying close enough

to hear it swooping

near my head

 

Looking up …

I saw it rejoin the others

and continue their

morning flight

 

Was this close encounter

a blessing …

or

a warning …

Either way …

it was a sacred moment …

WARNING!

Source: WeHeartIt

Please …

Don’t ever fall in love

with someone like me …

I wear my heart on my sleeve

I care too much

I am loyal to a fault

I get a bit clingy – just the way I am

I trust until you give me a

reason not to

I will always be there for

you until you are no longer

there for me

I love too deeply

And …

Give too much …

Much more than I ever receive

But …

Once you hurt me

Break my trust

Abuse my heart and soul

You will be removed

from my life without

WARNING … or

a backward glance

And …

NO second chances

So … you have been WARNED:

Do not fall in love with someone

like me if you cannot take me for

who and what I am and give to me

everything I give to you …

Fair Warning …

I can be your best friend

OR

Your worst nightmare

You will never know

what hit you should

you cross me in just

the right-wrong way …

The day began with

promise or perhaps

a warning

 

A rainbow woven

through dark grey

storm clouds 

sitting in the 

South West

 

Unusual…

Beautiful…

Ominous…

 

The day goes on…

No storms…

Clouds come and

go bringing the

taste of Summer

sunshine until…

 

Late in the day

at long last the

storm built

growing in strength

until…

darkness descended

in the middle of the

afternoon

 

Rain falls…

Lightning and Thunder

with a sprinkle of

tiny hail

 

Refreshing the air…

Renewing the day…

Bringing cooling rain…

The taste of sunshine

exchanged for a

coolness…

A respite from 

the heat 

The Earth Rejoicing…
