Light as Air poem 2013

Dear Everyone:

Here is today's poem.

LIGHT AS AIR

What is lighter than the head
of a dandelion or a feather
They float in the wind doing
aerial ballet
I don't want to be weighed
down
Especially in summer I like
to stay light on my feet
I contemplate running and
the air whistling past me
accompanied by a sense of freedom
My shoes spring forward and
make me feel like I'm flying
Lightness, air, freedom, flying
They all capture a desired state
Just don't make me return to
earth anytime soon


Helen.
