Master of the air that is his master. Carving out the sky, he knows no god that is not one with himself; no death that is not the eternity I glimpse in the endless funnels of his eyes. What have I lost that I know not this oneness with wonder? That bars me from the everlasting present? What has taken me prisoner, but the words I weald to break their own spell? Lovely film that reminded me of Gerard Manley Hopkins’ Falcon ~ ” I met this morning morning’s minion, lord of his riding ….” I can’t find the book or I would have quoted it all.I had to note the feeling I got when he stared at you for that magic moment. It also reminded me of The Eagle by Abba, the song that made me take notice of them, very moving. I loved it when Mrs Whistler joined him in the air, or was it his mother!!!?
