Sky Diving...
Short story Poetry
Sky diving...
The air was brisk, the plane was fading away
With one breath, I enjoyed the day
The clouds by my side, everything so clear
A smile I couldn't hide as the earth grew near
The ants passing by so quickly below
Up above, I fly by, an wonder, do any of them know?
The limit reached, I must pull my second chance to tomorrow
With a heavy heart, I lightly float down, to walk again with a mixture of relief & sorrow
Feet firm to the ground, the thrill faded into me
Only a memory could I see
For another short while, I'd walk among the colony of those who rarely saw
A perspective bigger than themselves, life flying by, eyes open, hesitation hidden in a choice of withdraw
Till I leave this world again, & race back at such a reckless free filled speed
I walk among the many, in memory, with just enough patience as I need
