Since I am sick I don't have the energy to produce something new, so here's an oldie, I hope you still like it :)

I climb you with my arms. Filled with silvery spider web, courage, the wish to be away from here, blown in the autumn wind. A seed A kernel A core I leave my husk for all to find, scattered in the wind A parachute A dragon A kite I tie my silver thread, let me be carried away. *** August 2016 Copyright © Darren White

I love the formatting, and the words that stand out in your poem, which I read before reading the poem itself. And what a beautiful and moving piece it is. You have sown so many seeds and you've flown so high . . . you are the one who is leading the way Darren:) Amitiés
