Wings of The Eagle

I want to soar on the wings of the Eagle
    See the world through his eyes
I want to howl at the moon with the wolf
    Listening to the sounds of the night cries
I want to swim in the ocean like the whale
    Hear the song of the others calling
I want to glide on the air like a butterfly
    Softly spreading its colors to fly
I want to feel the air as it caresses me
    To have the world below and the sky above
I want to run free in the forest at dusk
    As the day takes a rest and the night wakes
I want to feel the rain as it showers the earth
    As it cleans the air and waters the flowers
I want all of this and so much more
    Most of all I just want to feel something
I want my heart and soul to be moved
    I want to feel love and be loved in return
I want to soar like the eagle in the sky
    Upon wings of my own above the things that make me cry
Lend me your wings sweet eagle
    Let me take flight leaving all things below

    I can feel your desire to be free...you greatly express that wanting to be free and loved. I pray that you find what you're looking for.

    Although many of the words and phrases here are overused, the flow and effortlessness of this seem to compensate it. The message is uplifting that actually makes the reader feel like soaring. Good luck.

    A notable achievment that soars like its desires. So compact and complete. A thought though - Hear the song of my brothers calls, is not quite right, a little editing I think. Thanks for sharing something that uplifts instead of depressing.

    You relied heavily on cliche images and phrases ( "howl at the moon with the wolf", "soear on the wings of the eagle", "feel the air as it caresses", "feel the rain", "run free", "see the world", "I want all of this and so much more", "I just want to feel something", etc. etc.) to express a completely unoriginal concept. Try to stay away from overused, common, weak words and phrases like those.

    This was so sweetly written from a heart so tender .


    I want all of this and so much more
    Most of all I just want to feel something
    I want my heart and soul to be moved

    My mind just soared like that eagle with your lovely words here. This is beautiful and it was filled with wonderful images. Being at one with nature and soaring high above all to take in the breathtaking scenery. You moved my heart with this and it flowed as soft as a butterfly. Thank you for this read, I really enjoyed. ♥ seamaiden
