Feathered

Edge

By Colleen WaltersPublished 2 months ago β€’ Updated 2 months ago β€’ 1 min read

My heart lifts on

the cool breeze

like a feather

soft and smooth

aerodynamic

emotions send it

twirling like a

quivered ribbon

higher and

higher until

it bumps the edge

of cruising attitude

and it cartwheels

and loop de loops

end over end

dipping up and

down as thoughts

send it somersaulting

and dancing in a

rhythmic descent

laced with

sunshine and

warmth

the clouds smile and

nod knowingly

as it drifts

towards the earth

lower and

lower before

softly landing

in the green grass

and waits for

the next breeze.

β€œFor I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬ ‭NKJV
