I must admit, I had dreams of flying as young as a little girl. To no longer be tethered by earthly bounds would truly be a most ethereal feeling. Simply beautiful, Craig!

Thanks for coming by, Kelly! And I'm glad you had those dreams too. There is something so freeing in that thought. 🕊️

Would be nice to have Feathered Wing. We could escape at Will, my friend. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

Thank you, dear friend. So thankful you have stayed here through these years. So thankful for your always lifting soul. Yes... it is perhaps my sweetest dream... to fly... to fly from the heavy Earth into the lightness of the Heavens...

That's a beautiful imagination. It must be a product of a poet like you.
"Beyond imagined dreams and unhindered by the heart " these lines holds so much. Even though some have wings, their legs are bonded with fetters.
Hope you'll fly, Breaking all these fetters, from your heart.
"Hey, be careful while flying and yes, while you'll fly, your happiness will be the reason of our smile."
Well your beautiful art just reminds me of an incident when my English teacher in school asked us, ones to complete the phrase "I wish I could..." and give an extampore speech on chosen option. And I just chose "I wish I could be a smile on your face..." and the time I started delivering it, everyone just started laughing along with the teacher,and some even started shying... and it becomes the most embarrassing moment for me when I get to know, everyone has to choose a decent topic 🙃 😅...
I wish I could have found your imagination that time.

Well, thanks for the beautiful piece of art imagination.

So grateful for your kind words, dear Soyam, and happy in your comments about flying... and in your wondrous story of being a smile... that is truly the sweetest gift you can give anyone... joy... I know you are the reason for many smiles... and that you have a brilliant imagination. May it always soar! 🌟🌞🌟

Dear Craig,

You have created a beautiful dream here for your reader. A pair of wings to touch and explore the sky, a body light and the weights of the world left behind. Who would ever want to return to earth and all its burdens again? The bird in the picture seems to be flying above the clouds, in some untouched place and perhaps has found heaven.

Freedom through a poet's eye is so wonderful to read...

THANK YOU PRECIOUS FRIEND. These words flowed through me when my wings had been cut off... but I'm learning to fly again... and always love seeing you soaring in the heavens... May it always be.

Be careful Craig, fly at your peril in France as all things with wings are seen as fair game! Many songbirds neither make the migratory flight away from the UK or the flight home:)
Enjoyed the visit.
Hope you are well

[An owl on the moon]

Ah, thank you so much, my friend! Alas, I can only wish for wings... but will say a prayer or two for the songbirds over there. May they journey safe! And I am well... thanks so much!

[An owl on the moon]

Dear Sue! So happy to have you by. And thank you... always...

[Ladysue]

My pleasure, hope all is well..🙂

Life is a bit heavy these days... but perhaps my back is just strong enough to carry it... thank you for asking. 🥲

[Samuel Dickens]

How well you express man's longing to be like the birds. It brings to mind "The Water Is wide, I can't cross o'er, Neither have I wings to fly..."

[An owl on the moon]

Thank you so much, dear Sam. I am grateful to have you passing by here again. May we both find a few extra feathers for our wings in this new year.

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Owl… your words leave me breathless as feathered wings create an atmosphere where Peace abides among the clouds of uncertainty. The Spirit will Soar like a Rainbow 🌈 Rendezvous.

[KAREN]

This is so beautiful written! Somehow it makes me feel peace when I read it, like I can vision myself flying! And to be unhindered by the weight of the earth would be awesome!
