The Eagle

freedom is to soar  
across my celestial sky  
of sapphire planes  
 
courage is to spread  
my wings over alabaster clouds  
and float past the amber globe  
 
strength is to sail  
over my emerald sheets  
and fearless indigo waves  
 
loyalty comes when    
my exquisiteness is admired  
and my elegance revered  
 
I am the monarch of the air  
and conveyer to the gods  
 
I am the Eagle.
