Poem

On a bed of evergreen, she lay

Arms folded neatly behind her head

Fingers interlaced

Index, pointer

Twirling a few stray strands of golden tresses

Sneaking away from her ponytail

Gazing up at the morning blue

Friendly clouds, cumulus, greet her

Stimulating imagination creations

Plush pillow toppers

Downy soft dream makers

Entice day awake visions

Bunnies bounce across the azureous

Cottontail, like Peter

Short and fluffy backends

Trailing across the skyline

Cerulean watercolor paintings

Brushstrokes of an ivory tuft series

Swirling cloud forms; a feel-good feeling

Morph before her hazel eyes

Fanning the firmament, angels appear

Aerial messengers

Soul whisperers; blue ribbonists

Feathery antennae; wispy reassurance

Airspace connections drift along

Drifting too, she floats on cumulus concoctions

Mountain tops become visible

Cushy stepping stairs lead to soft, rounded peaks

Making the climb; triumphant ascension

Reiterating the sky's the limit

One foamy plateau, a vertex view

Reveals puffy letter notes

Skyward bulletins

Breathy-air secrets clear as day

Etched in water drops

Suspended in the misty blue

News so sweet like cotton candy

Long stretching against Lyra

Sugar cotton wool

She tastes the confectionery

Pulling apart and reshaping treats

Her cumulus contentment

She lay in the meadow one early morn

On solid ground

Yet part of her rose to the clouds

Magnificent blue

Daring to step out of her comfort zone

She soared above and beyond
