like birds

I wish I could reproduce on paper

with the exact colors and tones

some skies I have the privilege of witnessing 

the intensity

the weightlessness 

I wish I could fly in every sky I see

the feel I am sure

is different from any I have had before

I would only let it take me whole

there is no other option but flow 

like birds playing in the air

pretend falling and then taking over

the movement of their wings again 

drowning without water

and the perfect calculated flyby over the water 

oh so light

daughters and sons of the air

the mother nature so proud

the freedom pretty well enjoyed

filling my lungs I feel in all of me such part of it all
