When my heart no longer can weep or lie silent when I’m asleep, my head turns around, I’m hoping to find wings to fly from the ground to the sky. There’s a place, I believe, somewhere in me overflowing with hope, wishes, dreams, but I turn away from the glare of dismay when knowing they’re not here today. I don’t look down nor into the sky in case I should happen to spy the movement of a dream escapee not meant in the light to be seen. But night in its way echoes my plea and I awake too soon to be free from needs and desires given new life by dreams of mysterious kind. In the air of dreams somewhere a queen, if you’re male, a king it will be but too in the air is the maker of wings and the keyholder of our forgotten things. When I’ve discerned dreams aren’t meant to be yet still I can hope and believe my head turns around, I know I have flown, and that’s enough to warrant a throne! Helen |

It was good to read the hope at the end. We have to keep our hope and faith that things will get better, don't we? Hugs, Ethel |

Helen "my head turns around, I know I have flown, and that’s enough to warrant a throne!" flying doesn't always require wings, my friend. |
