Today I live
despite the world
rising on wings
so far above
eagles are below
as I climb higher
passing the clouds
gliding through rainbows
misted blurred vision
smoothes all edges
creating a tapestry
fog hugging rivers
passing overhead
no details seen
as morning rises
gently over the land
so many lives exist
going calmly on
I may never touch
very far bellow
are they even real
or pieces of my dreams
do their lives depend
upon my imagination
or what if someone
standing looking up
has the same thought
and we both hold our breath.....
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.

Lovely..."Or what if...and we both hold our breath" You allow us to fly with you, to be in your mind as you fly. Richness like this isn't something you hear daily. Thank you.
