Folds and fire
Flips and skips
Love’s desire
Sometimes
Dips
we
I love to take some time to preen
To keep my feathers pretty
There are those who don’t
Find the joy of this,
That really is a pity
Last night when my daddy started to snore
I dreamed I was a dinosaur
I walked this planet
With a loud proud stomp
Then bit my humans
With mighty chomp
Alas I wake up
My humans did too
Back to life and reality
Boo hoo hoo
While our heads are on pillows
And we close our eyes
There is a world out there
That searches for food
And flies
if i were a flower i would fly
spread my petals like wings
swoop around
from sky to ground
so many beautiful things
then to my stem i would return
taking in all in my sight
close my petals
that once were wings
and wish the world
a good night
a heart like fractals
delicate and strong
even as it yearns
to belong.
will not let go
of what it considers
true
so at times alone
and a little blue
