Flight
Altitude
an option with wings
a blue to black infinity
bound only in mundane effigies
of lift, airflow, thrust and drag.
Wind, a rush of cloud
a weight of light
to float an escape
of gravity.
Tears, shed at the joy
of possibility:
the softest touch hovers
on an edge of air.
Parting -- a blink
timeless in motion
to dare a breath
and glide in pure silence.
A kiss... the words
understood.

Good poem. I've enjoyed all your poems, so far.
annaswirlsalmost 20 years agothis has no comment and that is a sin. What a beautiful poem, I love the science (with word play!) in combination with the more qualitative part of live all mixed in. Nice work m.a.
