Chosen for Ink Empress'  the 'Poem of Your Heart' Poetry Contest

__________________________________________________________________________

 

Supine, looking at the sky I’m on a hill, where daisies with the breeze are dancing. I see birds and wish to fly - to soar with them with joy and great ease. Supine, with my heart in flight, I’m flirting with the clouds surrounding me. My spirit’s wings reach a lofty height. Now higher than the birds, I soar free. Supine, dreamily I glide. The sun is sliding down, and I am one with hues rose-red and tangerine, I ride a radiant ray of the setting sun. Supine, I’m falling to sleep. I dream I am a goddess, and her name is Luna. Underneath me shadows creep. My reign of star-filled night I now reclaim.

Andrea, this is a beautiful scene and set of thoughts. It reminds me of the feeling one gets when actually flying as pilot of something small. We are free to move in all dimensions. Your poem has those qualities and expounds on them with grace and peace.

Andrea, if this loveliness comes from being "supine," I hope you are "supine" more often for we are the beneficiaries of "radiant rays," " flirty clouds, dancing daisies and starry nights sheltered by Luna! Just lovely, my friend! Best wishes for the contest along with blessings for your supine moments.

Dear Andrea, What a breathtaking journey through dreams and imagination. Your imagery of freedom and serenity is amazing as if I am floating alongside you on that hilltop. The seamless flow of your words carries me through each stanza, leaving me in awe of the beauty you've captured. This is a beautiful piece. - Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
