Songbird's Gift
prismatic plume unfurled
melodic harmonies
carried aloft on shining wind

Written for Rick Parise's 'One Haiku' contest, incorporating the phrase "shining wind" and inspired by the following verse:
In moments of glory
Through heights unrestrained
To flutter in beauty
In facets ingrained
Oh song bird of reason
Oh song bird of love
Climb your peaceful stairway
To heaven above
