On Spider Webs


On sunlit afternoons
when my mellow mood
envelopes me
lifting my spirits
on floating spider webs
freeing me from life...
tossing ballast
like a balloonist
for an altitude high
to look at things
from a superior perspective

Robert

if you can dream; you can fly...if you are flying; you are dreaming.

Robert,
I am smiling and reading again.

Love the images, Robert. It's the heights I hate

Claire....you make me blush and so do you Doreen.

I have been off fighting dragons again...

Balladeer, some days I work 3 stories in the air on homes here in St Louis....I can't say that I hate heights or fear being that high....but I do have a healthy repect for it.
