Acquiescence Of Levity Inclinations



Shall we acquiesce to mornings first glow in flight

To the flags of yellow golden daffodils lined in a row

Flowing over mothers’ soft hills on new born grass

Like tiny soldiers at attention on the milky dawn



Elsewhere over the marbled planet surface blue

Where baby dolphins jump from the womb

From their home of salted liquid depths

Only to land in a splash to ocean’s laughter

Harmonized with giggles from children on a day trip

Watching with wide eyes from somewhere ever after



If not on the iron boat deck wide awake

Surely students would be beneath the waters deep

Out at sea is no place for little children, trip or not

Should a storm arise upon the morning

Ships are known to sink without a warning



No matter what the acquiescence inclinations are

No matter how delightful nature seems to be

Or how high the dolphins leap to leave the sea

Safety should always be our first consideration

Regarding such destinations and flights in levity



*Note: (If only dolphins and children could fly away to distant destinations. If only flowers could retain their yellow. What a different world this would be.
