A Moment’s Truth
An effect
of the altitude
bites hardest at night
Despair—
while waiting till dawn
in its
savagery
A long
wait that comes
too soon
Airless—
the ice
never melting
blocks
a natural bridge
if ever there
Penance—
the deep
frigid of blue sky
is blinding
Only the condor
—soars

Condors are magnificent creatures, Kathy. Their wingspan alone is majestic. You've truly captured the depths of being grounded under the beauty of flight. The imagery is lovely.

Thank you dear One for such lovely and understanding expression, and the recommend also. I have always been fascinated by the great condors wind-sailing through the mountain passes in the deserts.
