In Flight

Among the clouds, today I'll soar spread my wings and fly and with the angels I will dance above the world so high. My heart will beat a song of joy my cares will slip away in my flight, so fancy free upon the wind, this day. I am flying home today! I both love and fear it. Wish me luck! RG

The metaphor of flying is so strong... up above where our ills can't touch us. Well done Robin! Love and hugs, Keith

no problem. just head for the hudson river and you'll do fine. anywhere else and you might end up dancing and flying with those angels you wrote about. and lets hope those angels have feathers on their wings. jhl

I hope you enjoyed your flight. Love the word usage and as I read, I found that this can also be taken in a spiritual aspect. I often spread my inner wings and take flight, letting the winds of life carry me down mysterious paths. Beautiful write. :) Cheers, Alana
