Extraordinary Vision

Teddy.15

 

As the wild summer breeze took hold

and I sat beneath my favorite baobab

looking up, to see all

the magnificence of this
seemingly upside down tree

I suddenly saw my own mind
fluttering above my head
I could hear the birds
having a bath in the sweetness
of their own glorious voices
splashing their musical notes
upon my thoughts

reaching up to catch
my very expensive tool of reflection
as it swayed from side to side

almost dancing to the sweet, sweet melody

of those beautiful birds

 

it flew higher and higher into the sky
as if it knew, I was trying to grab it?


and then I watched it gently float away
like a lost air balloon
floating higher and higher

until it had vanished

away from the now
and into tomorrow

into the new beautiful imagery

awaiting, my minds next

extraordinary vision.

        "I could hear the birds
        having a bath in the sweetness
        of their own glorious voices
        splashing their musical notes
        upon my thoughts"
        Such a beautiful image!
        Reflection does indeed sway from side to side and very shortly drifts away
        "away from the now
        and into tomorrow"
        The placement of this in this location of the poem was masterful. This poem left a light airy feeling.
