Insomnia and Thoughts on Feathers

Two small perfect feathers landed right before my eyes,

From whence they came, or why to me,

I really cannot for the life of me, surmise,

But for weeks and months now I have seen them

And I mean really quite regularly,

The question’s what’s the meaning of this

strange white feathered oddity?

Some say that where these white feathers are,

There are guardian Angels standing near

That somebody’s trying to tell you to relax

and that you’ve no more need to fear.

Many Cultures have venerated this, across the mists

of time and space,

Native American and Christian, Egyptian and the

Ancient Druid Race ,

They’ve all seen it as connection with the Spirit World

So it’s certainly not new.

I guess you’d only really be convinced if one day you

could see it too.

For as life can throw us many curve balls, and

It frequently lets us down

Then perhaps these little symbols should

Bring peace when they are found.

To be taken at face value and not with one’s

intellect apply

As, if it lifts your spirit, then what “truth” can

It belie?

I know it may seem fanciful, and not make

a lot of sense,

But every time I see my feathers now, it provides

me with recompense.

It makes me feel a little less alone with this

frustration, pain and strife,

To think that I might have angels near, keeping

watch over my life.

So I’ll look forward to my feathers, if you don’t mind

when they fall in front of me,

And I’ll share that secret smile with them,

The one that only they can see! 😉 ❤
