Fly

I want to fly.
I want to float free’
on the zealous winds, as a seagull does,
never caring about how far lies the land below.
I want to ride a dancing draught and be carried to the stars,
above all earthly wonders,
so that buildings become sandcastles,
a breath grows clouds, and the sun is my only company.

I want warmth on my feathers
soaking into me;
I’ll drink in the sun’s sweet juices and fly.
You can have the sensation,
or you can lose yourself in the desire
and not even come to know
that there’s a beginning or an end
to every wonderful feeling.

So let’s explore the world above,
zeroing into numbness of brain
and overload of spirit and soul.
Float free’ with me,
on these zealous winds,
and like gallant seagulls
we’ll fly.

    I shall take up your invition to fly away today,
    up in dreams our thoughts do flow
    hand in hand our mind soars.

    Wonderful job Samathy!!!

    You say what I write is brilliance. It is nothing compared to this or anything you write. Beyond brilliance. Complete genius is what you write. Beyond the minds of mortal thought and understanding. Of course all I say here is but sand to what it truly is.

  • Sort of like your typical stuff, but some minor differences. I do like your style, even though it opposites mine. I always look forward to your new work.

    A beautiful poem. Very well done; the phrasing was powerful and captivating.
