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!

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

Why must winter bring death

With its pristine coat of white

Spirits, cloaked in angel dust

Are grounded from their flight

I kneel before you, butterfly
With your beauty, I am awed
I dare not look upon your face
I am not worthy, I am flawed

You are perfect, in your symmetry
Your wings, are a span of glory
I am nothing, compared to you
Just a writer, with another story

Allow me to glow, in your iridescence
Let me float, on the wisp of a breeze
Carry me away to your distant lands
Over mountains, meadows and trees

I will take in all the wonders
That lie below the clouded skies
In the valleys, dales and canyons
Let me see them, through your eyes

You kneel before me, butterfly
Yes, to take me away with you
Letting me fly, upon your wings
It’s really all I ever wanted to do
