Flight

Dreaming,

I close my eyes

and float clear sighted,

attaching the threads

of inchoate dream

to passing clouds

fat with wet promise

of future storm.

I soar,

And lie expectant,

buffeted by the winds

of chance and fancy,

passing thoughts reigning,

separated by--yet tied to logic's grasp,

but loosely held,

as visions form

and flee laughingly

from what might be real,

or might be dream,

I open my mind

and gather beauty

in drops of sunlit
Joy.

Nancy, your poetry is lovely, portraits of loved people and things. You are writing a beautiful history in poetry.

Thank you for stopping by my blog and commenting on my youngest grandson! He's a great kid. (I have seven grandchildren, six of them boys!)
