flight

before take off

Waiting here
Forced to slow down
Soak in the enviornment
People rush filled with excitment

Here with my thoughts
Reading, writing, kniting
Still in a world that is spinning around me

Amazed at the greatness of flight
From here to there in mere hours
People converging from all over the world
On to their next destination

I am in love with this place
With this moment
In love with the opporutnity flight brings

Lifting off
On to a new adventure
Interacting with strangers
Arriving home a bit more expanded
