Take Me HomeA Poem by Jillian AlexisMore of a thought really...I am staring out this little square window of this flying metal tube and I ponder this life...
What a perfect time to put our thoughts in order. Suspended thousands of feet above ground, with every worry and responsibility on pause for just a few hours. Nothing but the hum of the jets and the incessant popping of ear drums to keep our busy minds at ease.
The clouds up here are a fluffy white and I imagine dancing among them. Turning each one into the pink and blue colors of cotton candy. I imagine pulling apart the pieces and smelling the sweet concoction, placing it up[on my tongue and savoring its innocence.
Up among the clouds the land below forms an array of intricate lines and shapes. Perfect squares, circles and rectangles line the endless horizon. As if an artist made his way cross country leaving a legacy of work behind him.
Up here among the clouds, our sense of reality comes into question. Our silence is genuine. Our thoughts become our own. We are separate from the conditioned Imagine if we could sore among the clouds every day... Just how free we would become. © 2013 Jillian AlexisReviews
