Untethered

limitless endless rounds repeating banquet of unmeasured sustenance liquid light released into coolness assuaging my soul's brown thirstiness eyes open unguarded, unafraid sinking in spangled star reflections color arc rushing joyful cascade letting go, untethered forever October 26, 2014 Faye Lanham Gibson
