Life Anew
Whistling through the air
Without a care
Flying with the breeze
Always at ease
Sliding and gliding
But the wind is subsiding
Dropping you at a high velocity
Shaken and jolted with unknown ferocity
Dropping onto the cold hard ground
To the earth you are forever bound
The comfort of the wind never returns
But you have other concerns
Death is breathing down your neck
Making you a nervous wreck
Soon you fade into your mother
And feed the life of another
Reborn into the being
New sights, you are seeing
The sky so blue
You wish to view
Drifting and lifting into the miraculous space
Twirling and swirling at your own pace
When suddenly it happens
The mothers grip on you slackens
And once again
You glide and slide past women and men
Free of the burden that once controlled you
Free in your own heaven , The vast blue
