Spring flight
The insects take flight above me
electrons orbiting
an invisible nucleus
The hawks take flight
drawing circles
in the endless sky
only to do as hawks do
The trees take flight
only for a moment though
their seeds rain down
land on my head,
a blanket for the ground
I take flight
on this day
a journey of the mind
and a start of something new
I soar into the future
wanting to experience everything at once
but knowing, on this hill
the flight of spring
is here
for me
