Maybe I missed something,
went right over my head.
The Wright brothers
were never my neighbours,
because the birth of flight
was long before my time.
And the concept will be lost,
I wont break the circuit.
Ive always been grounded
and the electricity flows
from the storm to its home,
all I have to do
is keep standing still.
Because here is where I am
and I dont need affirmation
of my place in the world.
I exist,
I have faith in that.

Not the easiest thing to do,
in one’s life ...

To not need affirmation,
of our place in the world...

I don’t think you missed
anything at all Dawn

All the lights, are on,
and you’re, definitely home...

Kit made them, there's a whole page of them if you go here
http://kit.netpoets.net/

all you have to do is right-click the icon and click Properties and it will give you the url address so you can put the icon in your post using html code

< img src="copied url here" >

but when you post, don't leave the spaces between the < > and you should have it! I just had to leave spaces so it would not post as html here in my reply

It's alot of fun!
