Notes About The Poem

Date written: 02/03/2026

Parachute


so high,
 yet I leap 
with confidence... 

knowing i'll be cushioned below 
by you, hence, I'm more inclined 
to take any chance 

you are my safety net,
 the sun that warms my skin
when the world grows
 too cold to bear 

so high, 
yet I leap 
with confidence...

because you've got 
my back, literally. I am 
a feather floating down with thee 
to a soft landing. hosanna!

you're my parachute, 
that's why I leap 
from the highest of heights 
without trepidation or misgivings

so high, 
yet I leap 
with confidence...
