Can We Only Fly In Dreams

Watch with wonder IT is encompassing you all of the time Acknowledge your passion And bask in its beauty Free the child inside And watch for butterflies at your feet Grip the grass between your toes While knowing that the earth won't let you go Twirl round and round We are water, we are fluid Bring the stars back To the cloudy night above Can we only fly in dreams?

No Ashley, LOL We can fly in planes, helicopters, hot air balloons, blimps, hand-gliders, and etc. (I hope you don't mind my silliness. I am that way sometimes. You can tell I enjoyed your poem.) One more thought: Even though we can fly in all of those things, flying in one's dreams is the most wonderful! I like your poem. Keep writing! Lovingly, Dane

This is beautiful, and quite true, we could all benefit from having a little bit of that childhood wonder back... ~Katie
