Journey
For Ellie Hoovs' Wonderland Challenge - Day 7
A grackle's screech
Like an old hinge
Transports me
Back to the swings
In my backyard
Feet flying
Hair floating
No fears
No worries.
Notes of lavender and vanilla
Like blooming love
Bring me
Back to the beginning
Of freshman year
Feelings fleeting
Heart swelling
No limits
No bounds.
A rush of sugar
Like sweet laughter
Takes me
Back to the days
Spent in the sun
Waves crashing
Seagulls calling
No cares
No thoughts.
Worn ivory
Like polished stone
Carries me
Back to the times
Of unleashed emotions
Fingers gliding
Foot tapping
No hesitation
No judgment.
The shine of Orion's belt
Like a celestial beacon
Guides me
Back to the nights
Exploring the infinite
Mind racing
Wonder growing
No restraints
No impossibilities.
