Mist stays

Envelops morn

While mighty wings spread out

Destined for a new horizon

She flies

Take flight, across the fullest moon

Watch as creatures swoop, and swoon

Seek out their journey, ride the wind

Then pause a moment, do not rescind

The thoughts, which carry you away

Take heed, as branches begin to sway

Along with the breeze, they gently fly

Dance with the night, let time go by

Forget the sorrows, gone, yesterday

Send them all packing, to the Milky Way

The glow of the light, shines through the dark

Though life is, often led by, a question mark

Gives comfort, to those who fear in the night

An escape, wings spread, exhale, take flight

Her flight was canceled.  Again. This would make the fifth time in as many hours. Determined to remain cool, she set her sights on the departure boards. Maybe she could get another flight out of this God forsaken town. At this point she didn’t care where she went, only that they wouldn’t be able to find her.

She witnessed a scuffle near the ticket counter, policemen were questioning the clerk, who seemed rattled. They knew. Without hesitation, she grabbed her carry-on, leaving the other bags behind.

Calmly walking out the doors, and signaling the closest cabby, she made her escape.

Winged ones take flight, covering the sky

Leaving behind, the homes they have built

No need to feel forlorn, for they will return

Rebuilding their nests, with love, to the hilt!

No Remorse ~ #poetry

To take flight, into the vast unknown

With only my wings, to keep me aloft

Through the sky, a haven, in which I roam

Unafraid of the journey, into the wind, I waft

To let my body feel, as my soul ascends

And my heart, to know it’s on course

So abstractly, against the clouds, I blend

As from this Earth, I leave, with no remorse
