| A WALK IN THE SKIES
Smiling, he said to me “Let’s walk the skies” I peered at him, wondering why, For we stood miles high above the earth Enclosed in a tower full of worth; With a look of intrigue he gestured there, To a glass floor that was laid with care, And with half a smile walked away from me, Leaving me gasping and a bit tizzy; Gently he urged me to join in the rare thrill Of sky walking that needed no skill, Shaken & white, seeking the strength of his arm Stepped I into nothing, pretending calm; High above, with his essence flowing in mine, With the world spiraling below did I find, That as breathe came slowly back into my lungs, It was courage that came from a song my heart sung.
