We too shall fly

Coming around the bend to find the atmosphere so clear Seeing that off in the distance fields of diamonds growing near No one holds onto this string; It flies oblivious to all forms of fear Kiting through heavens gate falling a million lightning tears Time holds no grip on them and will never be able to in a millenia years Clouds are unique in that way; that no one controls or steers The human soul on fire allows propulsion deep into the nights' sky But succumb they will not to the same oppressor as you or I; If all yielded to which we wield within our time, we too shall fly

I was comparing the humanization of clouds, which collectively at any point on the planet can be destroying or providing beauty. How they also have the ability to see a close review of the stars and an all encompassing view of the heavens. But most humans don't see the power that they wield, to be good. Or to take a different path. My suggestion is just don't waste the path that you were given. Few understand all the good that they are in the world because they're just good everyday, they don't recognize how exceptional what they bring to the table is. ;) A.S.
