Flying My Kite of Prose

Running...running through vacant hills of prose.. Behind me, see the words trailing... Unseen, unspoken, unwritten, wanting to soar... Whipping behind me on a chain of hope... My words, my voice, my heart...unlaunched... Needing to flee, ready to be set free, seeking the sky Yearning to fly..... Perhaps today's fair weather will provide... Perhaps tomorrow's .... It will take the heavenly breezes... That magic gust of wind to make them sail

A wonderful piece. Very inventive to use the metaphor of kite flying. :-)

I too keep looking and waiting for that wind. I would say yours is flying high with this poem. Love, Lainie
