Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

FelicityStep

Felicity

Stepping out into the sun-filled air,

I raise my head and see the blue

So tantalizing, high above me.

 

A slight breeze fondles my curls;

I reach out, try to hold it in my arms.

But it evades me, laughing slightly.

 

My feet lift from the ground;

I am light as the wind.

Strong and ready, I ascend

 

And sweep amongst the green

The leaves nod to me.

I plummet towards the earth

 

And spin, and rise again,

Laughing, not afraid.

The sky is mine, this realm of everblue.

 

Clear through the air,

One arm outstretched,

Towards the open door. 

 

My hand closes upon the knob

And I swing into the house

Feet landing lightly.

 

The thrill passes

But I will never lose

This empyrean joy.
