Spirit In The Sky

Day before yesterday, I walked a path that runs around the perimeter of a reservoir. Stopping at a solitary bench half way around, I prepared to meditate on the clouds floating above me. Looking up, I saw a bald eagle soaring high. I knew of a nesting pair is in residence at the reservoir, but to see one flying above me was a thrill I never imagined. I tracked it's slow and regal flight for several minutes until it literally disappeared into the clouds. Meditation continues.
