Early Eagle

by JLR

Each new day pushes back the nights
an eagle soars high to new heights
regal, the word that comes to mind
little force is used in her flights,
yearning to sight her sought find.

Even hares knew her hunting sites
and were doomed if seen in her sights.
gods of the sky smiled down in kind
liking the order as designed;
eagles hunt; their natural rights.
