Picture by Jim Warren

* * *

On a perfect Summer's day
You'll see me grace the sapphire sky
High above the thermals take me
Upon silken wings I fly

In the quiet of the morning
I ride the waves with ease
In the noonday sun I glide
Upon the warm gentle breeze

As I search the far horizons
The sun lays down to rest
When nature draws her curtain
That's the time that I like best

I sit quietly beneath the moonlight
As the stars pierce the sky
And in the first light of morning
Upon silken wings I'll fly

* * *

"Be like the bird that, passing on
her flight awhile on boughs too slight,
feels them give way beneath her,
and yet sings, knowing that she hath wings"

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
- Shawn Mullins

Hi Sue,  very nice write.  It must be a
lovely scene there...being able to lie
outside with such tranquility above you.

Did I say I was envious?

Thank you all for your lovely comments.

Sue - Thank you so much.  Unfortunately, I don't get here as often as I used to but it's always nice to see some familiar faces.

Take care........Sue
