The Feather

The warm summer breeze
Holds me floating, briefly still
Just a gentle breath
Sends me tumbling once again
Where it takes me, I shall go

Insightful meaning. I see you are courageous. It's no easy feat to do this. It means one must leave the road well trodden. I think this is your meaning. If so, you are my brother. If not, you're still my brother of words and deep meanings. Either way, I liked this one a lot.
