Above the Earth, Held in Sky

Up here in the blue, I see the world breathe,
fields stretch wide like arms beneath.
Clouds drift by, soft and slow,
like thoughts of home, wherever I go.

Down below, rivers carve their lines,
twisting, turning, ancient signs.
Forests rise in patches of green,
like islands of life in a vast unseen.

Mountains yawn, cloaked in mist,
each peak a lover my wings have kissed.
And lakes lie still, holding the sky,
their mirrored depths make time go by.

Cities blink, and roads weave tight,
yet fade away in this soft light.
From up here, life seems so small,
just tiny hearts in a world so tall.

Flying high, I feel her near,
the earth’s own pulse, a breath so clear.
To soar like this, in endless grace,
is to hold the world in a sweet embrace.

Every cloud, every gust,
fills my soul with boundless trust.
I touch the earth, I kiss the sky,
a love that lifts, a soft goodbye.
