Where Does The Eagle Soar? Poem by Sandra Kavanagh Josefsson

Where does the eagle soar?
Does it fly over the west Canyon
or over your mountains high,
lost in the maze of your golden sky.

Does it fly over your forests far and wide.
Soaring up high and then to the side.
Going to heights that we can all dream off.
Gliding down to the sea before the coming tide.

Does it fly over ranches of cattle and calf.
Does it fly over cowboys resting around the fire
and having a laugh.
Does it fly over streams of velvet blue.
Does it fly over me and you.

You look to the sky and see it soar overhead.
It glides to its eyrie on the high Cliffs instead.
It stays on guard till its mate arrives
and then it sees its prey and dives.

The darkness starts to mull over
and its time to head home.
Tomorrow is another day
to see where the eagles roam.

Verse: Sandra Kavanagh (c) .
