As Light As a Feather

The gurgling of the brook Daisies swaying on the bank As light as a feather I am, to look Problems tossed with the stone that sank The wind chime music, playing light Jingling in the soft breeze of air As light as a feather, I take flight My mind is floating in ways I care Clouds travel above me in the sky Moving in patterns to see As light as a feather, I watch them go by Dreaming of places I want to be Soft Dandelion seeds circle in wind from flowers In an open field, where I am free As light as a feather, like soft rain showers In a ballet dance between each tree As light as a feather, where I have peace of mind As light as a feather, in these discoveries I find Heidi Sands 7/30/22

The sound of the brook, the chime of the wind, the roaming cloud patterns, flowers whirling--simply beautiful images you convey in this poem, Heidi. A FAVE from me for these splendid sights and sounds you brought forth. Best to you.
