Bike Flying


his life is
a gentle eagles flight
does not want
to be a kite
has no ties
to hands with strings
just the clouds
the sky and wings
he found a place
soft as feather
upon his back
a cloak of leather
he flies so high
upon the streets
a different man
to all he meets

I’m not disappointed,  I never expected anything from you.

Helen,
Is that legal?

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

(sigh) Oh my gosh, this is so creative and original, sweet friend, it's almost like he is all transparent and just when you think you know him he is long gone! (sigh) This is brilliant, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

1slick_lady this is such a wonderful poem. I especially like the ending.

"he flies so high
upon the streets
a different man
to all he meets"

This is excellent, thank you for sharing.
