Soaring

Have you ever imagined the feeling Of soaring above the clouds Only the breeze between you and the earth Away from the bustling crowds With the occasional sound of the fiery blast That keeps your airship afloat An oh so peaceful, heavenly solitude As you sail your celestial boat Imagine the absolute total serenity As you take in the breathtaking view Corn fields that go on forever and ever Mountains that reach for the blue Drifting skyward on a gentle breeze Above the clouds you soar A feeling of contentment and inner peace Emanates from your every pore © Jack Ellison 29014

Sounds so lovely and ethereal, but I am terrified of heights. I will keep my little terrestrial boat on the ground. Lovely write, Jack.

Dragon likes the celestial part, but the boat not so much. it makes him sound stout. That fiery blast describes him perfectly! Tho the occasional spark does light a field or two. And the contentment stops when he decides to take me on a few whoop te doos! And at times he loves to fly upside down. It does give the ground a new perspective as I try to hang on! Dragon says he knew you'd write about him again... He's on team Jack more each day. That's OK. After that ride I'm taking a much needed nap!
