Floating, I drift with the wind.
Helplessly flying with no direction, until I feel the soft earth beneath me and I nestle in the soil of life. Here I lay waiting for the sun to lift me up so I may blossom, and be what I am destined to become.

Here is my other entry into this challenge\;
I AM
This is not who I thought I would be. Before my family was captured and forced into slavery, I had aspirations of becoming a wealthy business owner or possibly a scholar and philosopher. Becoming a warrior was the furthest thing from my mind. Unfortunately, our Roman conquerors had other plans.

Galactic Odyssey: Journey Across the Stars
In the vast expanse of the cosmos, where stars wink in the velvet darkness and planets dance in endless orbits, there lived a young explorer named Alex. Born in the age of interstellar travel, Alex's dreams stretched far beyond the confines of their home planet. Their heart beat with the rhythm of distant galaxies, and their mind buzzed with curiosity about the mysteries of the universe.

Jason this is such a wonderful little story and such well timed for the (hopeful) coming of spring! Great work my friend!!
So well written! How pleasing for my eyes! It's nice after being off vocal for a while to come back and see the same names blessing the platform
I don't know, J, this one seems seedy & to kinda drift. Still, I'm sure it will become fruitful, lol.
This felt so delicate! A lovely take on the challenge prompt, nicely done J 👌🤍🙏
Nature can sometimes be brutal, but you brought the soft and tender part...needed that
Strikingly poignant work! Cheers to blooming :)
So small, and yet so huge. Just like your story!
This was filled with so much hope and optimism! Loved your take on the challenge!
You did quite a bit with such an economy of words! A ending of purpose and promise! Great entry!
Got love daffodils
