Soaring The Sky

Sunset over Nova Scotia

As the sun set upon the world,

The girl dreamt that she was soaring the sky

High above her ephemeral life below

High above her worldly worries

The clouds carressing her

A comforting misty embrace

 She dreamt of rich and joyous moments

Of moments where life seemed to slow down

In the slowness love came rushing in

A love so great that even she could not fathom

A love that spoke of time and memories

And that beheld all dusks and dawns

As the light slowly dimmed

A blue cocoon surrounded the girl of dreams

Unafraid the girl knew that the cocoon signified a new era dawning

She drifted atop the sleeping lakes and resting trees

Reassured by the growing darkness    

 She let the wind carry her forward
