My heart slurs
on a hummingbirds' wings
Fast flitters
ready for flight
at the sound
of your footsteps
but when all
is said and done
my heart soars
on the back of a paced eagle
towards you, my sky.

The author's comments:
I got that feeling of inspiration by simply sitting outside on the back porch watching the hummingbirds on my moms feeder.
