Flying to the Ground A tinseled sky has caught my eye Clouds of color usurp the sky And I have fixed some wings my back To climb above the things I lack I’ll climb and paint my wings up there In all the hews of daring dare Fly down into and Eden’s den And figure out the why and when And then I’ll fly my love away Beyond forever and a day And read to her my rhymes divine To sweep her up my sands of time And we will glean the fields of green And dance and laugh upon the scene Build our castles on the shore And mortar them with evermore And ne’er a wave will bring them down For they are built of true earth brown. |

Sy, m'friend And you said you'd write like me...I'll take the compliment, for compliment it is. But, please don't. It'd be a giant step backwards. Ed |

Swept me away in reading this....what a lovely thing to take in. Lifted this reader for sure. "Build our castles on the shore And mortar them with evermore" What woman doesn't love to hear these words that make her feel secure! Very nice, and sincere.
