Notes About The Poem

For Anoucheka Gangabissoon's "In my deepest fantasies" poetry contest

__________________________________________________________________

My Deepest Fantasies

My deepest fantasies are high.
Into the deep I would not go.
In them, I'd soar with birds in sky
and watch all things that are below.

All on my own, I long to fly.
My deepest fantasies are high.
I’d drift with wind where I’d belong,
and with wind's whispers, I would sigh.

No revelries of wealth have I.
I’d rather lift like a balloon.
My deepest fantasies are high.
Perhaps I’d even touch the moon!

My body once again would be
without its pain, and I’d feel spry
while moving like a dream and free.
My deepest fantasies are high.

I agree. When you have a choice high is better. It's really an immense choice to make. Be well. Now that I think about it, I don't recall ever a negative scribble from you.

I can completely second your list of your deepest fantasies for myself. I think I might try this contest.

It's a nice fantasy. Maybe you were a bird in a prior life, drifting where the wind whispers? I think you should try hang gliding :-)

I really don't have deep desires. So I wrote my favorite dream. When I just go up in the sky and can make myself float to wherever I want!

Oh to fly like a bird, wouldn't that be wonderful, the closest I've come to that was paragliding off a mountain and going up in a hot air balloon. Best of luck in the contest Andrea. Tom
