I want to fall up

come with me, let’s fall up
and not into something deep
I think it’s time to do it different
before we go to sleep

for if we fall up, and play in clouds
what a treat we’d find
all our problems now ant-size
all bad habits left behind

fall up with me, not in love with me
you don’t even have to be in like with me
but if you come fall up with me
wouldn’t that be heavenly?

Come let’s talk to angels,
and help them in the choir
now I don’t have much of a voice
but if you sing bass, I’ll sing higher…

and let’s make faces out of clouds
of animals or some such things
and while we play our game just right
let’s whip up some sun-rings

since we’re here, let’s grab God’s ear
and tell him how pleased we are
for this imagination he’s given us
c’mon with me, let’s fall up this far!

What is this? You don’t want to play
and fall up with me to far away?
and you’d toss my dreams to reality?
for the truth you’d rather see?

But can’t you see? There, in the skies
where up and up is in the blue?
why don’t you try just once with me
and let me fall up with you.

Thanks for the repost. I never saw the first one, being new and all

Vintage Sunshine, indeed. One of your very best pieces.

I seem to say that a lot ... you must have a LOT of good stuff to share

You still have the imagination of a child and I consider that a good thing. Much enjoyed, Karilea.

(smiles) Sooooooooo beautiful and playful, sweet friend, your innocence and imagination run wild in this beautiful vision! (kiss on cheek) May we through words all fall up and soar down and fall into fantasies in-between! We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is soooooooo inventive! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karilea, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Very nicely written, Karilea, and the theme of falling up is perfectly addressed. As for head in the clouds, what ar dreams for if not for that?

This is a good one, Kari. What a nice idea, to fall up..to see the world from a better viewpoint.
