On wings…. Up and away

Awareness, inspiration, Poetry, prompts

“The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease forever to be able to do it.” ~ J. M. Barrie, Peter Pan.

Encountered this keen seagull following our boat cruising the Bosporous straits, Istanbul

➰➰➰

Gravity grabs my feet

I feel unable to take flight

I imagine myself letting go

And like magic my spirits lift

It soars in the air, floats weightlessly

I see my body still on the ground, shackled

But my mind, my imagination is free

To fly, to observe and to savor

The beauty of the universe around me

I am writing to express my opinion, share my experiences and to maybe provide some insight. My blog is addressing women at 50 ( but men are welcome to read my posts) ,their issues and the questions that come up at this stage in life. I don’t aim to teach, but to learn together.

  18. As I lay here, feeling the weight of the world

    I close my eyes and let my thoughts unfurl

    I imagine myself lifting off the ground

    My troubles and worries left far behind

    I soar through the air with the greatest of ease

    The wind in my hair, the sun on my face

    I am free to explore, to discover new places

    The world is my playground, my canvas to paint

    So I spread my wings and fly, fly away

    Leaving behind all my troubles and fears

    For in my imagination, I am free to be

    Anything I want, anywhere I please

    So I let go and fly, weightlessly

    Drifting on the breeze, soaring through the sky.
