Quatrain of Feathered Mopoke - 1403

Quatrain of Feathered Mopoke

Mopoke, Australian name of several birds

In another life, I sailed above
the weather, as if
my heart was
weightless,

The shape of my soaring soul,
honorably covered my
sins, I must
confess.

I was a glider of uplifting truth,
bound to inspiration and a
scavenger of all
hope,

I had wings of an angel, a
reincarnated mind, I was a bird
of prey, an Australian
Mopoke.
