Carry me high,
Up into the blue sky.
I need to float I want to fly.
I grow weary of the ties that bind
I need to leave it all behind.
Draped in royal purple
And midnight blue
I am ready to break through.
Flocks of ravens wing my heels
Amid the thermal my soul weals
I glide and whirl,
Down I tumble and twirl
Gloriously my satin wings unfurl.
I dash from horizon to the moon
Leaving vapour trails in rainbow
hue.
No not wispy white for me
High-flying honestly free.
Above the earth for all to see
My spirit escaped mercifully free,
OH! thank God at last, cut loose and flying free.

Thank you Sue it is a rework of a very old poem of mine. The old one was disconsolate but I changed the words and meaning. Now I feel it reflects more accurately how I am feeling. 💜

Yes, I gathered that…and this is a much better place to be ❤
Apr 13, 2019 @ 06:37:15
Yes indeed 💜

Beautiful verse, but leaves me wondering, what does rhyme with purple? off to find out.
Apr 13, 2019 @ 04:45:07
Not a lot rhymes with purple 🤪

The poem and its sentiments are good by themselves with their great ideas. The left margin format for two of the lines added value and strengthened meaning (IMHO)

Thank you, I am glad you liked the poem. It is about the inner feelings we often have about life and how these feelings are expressed in dreams .💜

This is a great write,
“Gloriously my satin wings unfurl.
I dash from horizon to the moon
Leaving vapour trails in rainbow
hue.”- I really liked this line! 🙂
