Trippy-Dizzy

I see you from the heights of a pine. I get trippy-dizzy with you beneath me. I’m that dandelion all alone, talking on the telephone, wondering where you’ve been - to Everest or a deserted island. I’m in the boat. You’re on the shore. Can’t find the wherewithal oars. You fell an oak to bridge the gap. Generations lapse. You climb the Christmas tree to grab the star, find a trippy-dizzy angel in the midst of her repertoire. I hang an ornament around your neck. You put a ring on my finger. We fall through the ages, winging it through each branch.

A wonderful tale of romance. So happy that he was able to finally find his Trippy-dizzy angel. I hope they live happily ever after.

wow, your poem took me aback! Loved the trippy-dizzy angel. Loved these lines because they seemed romantic: I hang an ornament around your neck. You put a ring on my finger. We fall through the ages, winging it through each branch. I thought your entire poem was just beautiful...have a great evening, hugs, Sara
