Awesome Billows In the Sky

I sit beside
the plane's window--
as it goes up to the
clouds, a smile bursts
onto my face and lips;

it hurts to be miles
away from my family
but the clouds lessen
my longings.

I want to lie down
in that calm soft white 
foam forms,
roll my body over it

watch the sunshine,
the bluish color
of the clear sky
and ocean.

Every shape of it is
astonishing to the eyes
I want to live in the
air--

I crave to sleep
and dream in the
perfect yonder.
