(don't swing at me here)
inadequate
my demons
i feel scared
you are a soft place to land
send me in reverse
to a similar place
this is it
it's what you are
you make people think
and feel
and express
(like me)
(i love you)
the magic
that you have
is miles in the sky.

"The magic that you have is miles in the sky"
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness.
You make me so jealous of your gifts with lines like that, that suck the air out of a room...
sometimes words are presented to me as a gift with which to weave a poem.
ReplyDeletelove!
p.s. this might be a good time to mention again that one of my favorite phrases is "don't stop!" ;)
ReplyDelete"send me in reverse to a similar place?"

ReplyDeleteThe feeling I get from this reminds me of a great line that Chief Dan George keeps repeating in the movie "Little Big Man" to express his joy:
ReplyDelete"My heart soars like a hawk."
(One of my all-time favorite movies)
oh yes oh yes! my heart, too, soars like a hawk.
ReplyDeletelet's fly!
