Flight

For the Sensational challenge

I am height

rush and roar

updrafts, carrying me higher

I am lightness

a soft warm heartbeat in a wide, cold sky

ruffle of feathers

I am cold

smell of wind

fresh tang of it

green falling away

everything smaller

life glint, sharp beady flint

I am joy

dip and swoop

fluttering scribble against the vast blue

I am free

As always - thank you for reading! I appreciate feedback. Please leave a comment so I can reciprocate.

If you are interested - I spent the weekend with family and there was a particular crow circling the garden. He was huge! I enjoyed watching his flight. I hope you enjoy it as well.
