Panagiota Romios Poet Free verse

On the Ecstasy of Being a Cloud

Flying over the earth in ecstatic joy and mirth.
Feeling billowy and devastatingly sweet.
Free as I have ever felt.
Unencumbered by a human body.
It was a redemption most divine.
A new beginning, and time was all mine.
No approval did I need nor seek.
I was resoundingly complete!
Gratitude filled my cloud soul, as up in the universe I rose.
I belonged to all the earth, unlimitedly.
Humanity, ah, humanity admired my cloud shapes, endlessly.
And oh, I loved them so!
Such astounding peace I feel and eternal freedom.
So sings my aloft, cloud soul!

John Watt November 9, 2020 at 8:34 PM This is wonderful free-flying poetry of the soul, Pangie. I was attracted by the title, just had to read it, and wasn't disappointed. The words I love the most are billowy, unencumbered, redemption, and eternal freedom. "No approval did I need nor seek" could be a good motto for our reason to be at Soup. Your poems are often seasoned with gratitude, and this is no exception. "Gratitude filled my cloud soul". Such a dreamy and soulful write. Blessings ~ John Panagiota Romios November 10, 2020 at 3:33 AM It's people like you...with comments that are specific, that hold up a mirror to see my reflection and acknowledge who I am. I don't think any of us are so great we don't want to be appreciated. I, too, liked this one, John. Gratitude I have in droves. Angelic helpers here, go beyond commenting to be more than kind. I think they know who they are. You game me an idea for next write. Thanks for an excellent comment. Pangie xx
