What it is,
I don't care to know
caught off guard by the facts,
set me back in blue.
There is love in the air
a whirlwind that serves as a subtle reminder.

Like a prize,
for those who are lucky enough to rise above it.
Where clouds form all fancy and full,
but they too shall pass through a jet stream.
It's part of the process,
a way of getting to where we want to go.

Caught up in the moment
fleeting across the skies
holding fast to what it is,
and has always been.

Many times it feels like this, and you state it so very well...the clutching to the moment without a thought to the rest of time.
Excellent write.
Good to read you again Bluesy...very good.

This reminded me of a dream I used to have where I was flying, without a plane.  Was a great feeling...   .

Much enjoyed.  I like the idea of being swept away.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Yeppie Lori, and sometimes it sure seems to take way to long to get where we want to go....lol.  This is very well thought out and crafted hon, good to read  your words again, I've missed them.

I know this whirlwind of being full of fancy and my feet never wanting to touch the ground! You captured that perfectly!

Fly high, fly free, fly often!

Big hug,
Linda

Bluesy,  this paints a more positive picture.  Like the way you have stroked the
scene so well.

Bluesy, I enjoyed this high-flying write.

I know someone who needs to "rise above it" and just be swept away!  I shall send them here to read your poem!  Well done!
