This is in response to a poem by MesAyah on WordPress
elemental
flight
having
gone too far,
the wings
pierce
sunshine, disappearing into
a
dandelion that rests in the still pool
which
curves across the sky
as it waits
to
rejoin the sea;
and pinioned shepherds
of
fleecy clouds
shade their eyes, placing
friendly
bets
on when that foolish bird
will
wilt
but, still, not a one sees me
tumble
out
the other side and into
shimmering
celestials
where
the
touch of fresh
freedom tastes
like
tangy pineapple juice on my skin,
and
feathers
sing as i zip past that zodiac,
i
skip through chaotic
simplicity like a stone,
the
orbiting
constellations embed themselves
in
shining, streaming strands of braided
hair,
colorful
comets dance at my feet and i wrap
myself
in Cosmos
and utterly dissolve,
becoming
one with
unbounded Life
again.
