Dream of Freedom

I dreamt I saw a feather upon a ripening wave That fell and rose; this eagle feather strayed That lay upon the blue cheek of a smiling sea, This smile from sea and sky, that smiled at me I dreamt I saw a feather dancing on it's own; A fallen testament to the thousand skies it's flown That dreamt still of those far, measureless blues; This trophy of a restless warrior proved I dreamt I saw a feather resting amidst two skies; Felt it knew the language that waits in dreamers eyes It whispered of shining realms I'd never known; Of borderless summer, of earthen life outgrown
