My son says
"Watch me fly!"
Such simplicity
Inspires me

His words, like musical notes
Linger in the wind
He is weightless
In his freedom

I want to say
"Watch me fly!"
I want to imagine
This limitlessness

So, here I am
Again
I surrender
Noise, be quiet

Our chemistry is undeniable
I've missed you, Old Friend
Don't ask me
"Where have you been?"

There is no room for frivolity
I spill my heart
Pouring out truth and reality
So much comfort in this familiarity

My pen dies
Ink has run out
I am thankful, though
I have lots of colors

I find so much humor
In the irony
Of abrupt endings
I pause

Unfolding, I am in
A great space
Time to begin again
"I am going to take off"

Watch me fly!
