Fly Among the Clouds

Tethered to the ground,

Fly among the clouds,

My soul does soar,

When autumn winds abound.

Earthbound though I am,

My spirit seeks the sky,

The simple joy of flying,

Is held within my hand.

The birds have no advantage,

As I take to flight,

The lightness of my soul,

Soars upward with my kite.

Flying far above the ground,

My kite and spirit soar,

Hours can slip calmly by,

As peace is surely found.

The stresses of the working world,

All slip and melt away,

As I fly among the clouds,

On this autumn day.

I don't know if i'm the only feeling this is really an amazing writing. It has maturity to it like it is written with so much expertise. A humble poem but really beautiful....

Would be a good feeling to fly with wings in the open sky. I did some parachutes jumps in the Army. Best feeling in the world. I like the feel and the desire of the poem. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.

I love this part..

"Tethered to the ground,
Fly among the clouds,
My soul does soar,
When autumn winds abound.

Earthbound though I am,
My spirit seeks the sky"

This poem is really beautiful, descriptive, and powerful, you did a great job! The only thing I didn't understand was this line:

"The l lightness of my soul"

I don't know if there's a typo or something? Anyways, great write.
