FANTASTIC ROMANTICISM

Folder: 
JOURNAL #22

such great black birds

fluttering up and up

air is swiftly sent everywhere

messing why even this pretty girl's hair

nothing but blue sky

floating above

blue blue eyes

a reflection of self

it would seem

and such a perfect day to fly

to the maestro's mind

unaged

before thee

man at one with his element

quite a view to behold

beyond even imagination's belief

its like something straight out of

Jules Vern's mind

an earmarked destiny

flavored by relief

such precision experience and training

could make even the most careless by

stander

indeed stop to watch gasp care and sigh

as that for which

such freedom must be

like so glorious

beyond the realm of the average man's vision

and surely the main reason why

with gravity we as magnet like mortals

choose it to defy.............
