Poetry: Flying

From the window of our airplane

The fluffy clouds stretch endlessly

Like a snowy landscape

As far as the eye can see

A flash of silver

Disturbs the solitude

As fellow travelers

Pass below us

Blue above and white below

As close to heaven as humanly possible

We are travelers on lifes highway

High above the lives below

For this one moment

We are suspended

Between the universe

And the Earth beneath

A second of grandeur

In a life mundane

All too soon we will

Be landing amid chaos

That peaceful moment forgotten

As we resume life.

    Borrowed Wings

    Born to ground
    I dream of flight.
    Toil and frown
    I seek the night.
    Prison of soil
    I begin to scowl.
    Close my eyes
    I
