About This Poem

Weightlessness


                                 I'm not fat, but not thin
                                Imagine being weightless
                                   and just float around

                                   
                                              ***


                             Do not be concerned about what
                                       you are weighing
                                  be happy that you have
                              both feet planted on the ground

    Very true Anne! Reminds me of the boy who was sad he didn't have any shoes... until he met the boy who didn't have any feet! This was creative and different... weightlessness and stability both have their "ups and downs" so to speak...

    True.... ups and downs - thank you for visit and comments, Timothy. - oxox love Anne-Lise :)
