Call of the Eagle...

Some sights/images have a hold the power to create a hold on us. They evoke a host of emotions and perhaps remain with us forever, stuck in our minds, sometimes forgotten and often recollected. Sometimes in happy situations and sometimes in nightmares which leave us drenched in sweat, screaming in silent screams.
And there are some that will touch a chord with the artist in all of us. Last month my friend Nivedita Aluri uploaded photographs of the Yellowstone National Park. One of them happens to be a lonely eagle flying across the road with tall pines on either side. Somehow this image remained in my mind and it took nearly a month to complete this poem.

  1. Loved it.... Beautiful... The poem the pic and the amalgamation... Longing and sorrow... Beautifully carved out emotions shaped well with such fragility... Good example of graphic poetry
