a poem

 

 I’m in freefall

Constant free fall

From above the distant stars

Through the universe

Through this galaxy

to be here cast into the sea

Swimming for a breath

that brings you back to me

there is life among the branches

 where the birds sing

in the morning light that wakens

each day in our short-lived lives

and through it all

in this universe

we’re in a free-fall

a constant free-fall

We fall from heaven above. Landed, and was given a path to walk and learn.

It seems that way, especially when our plans can never be counted on. Impressive work, Edwin.

Psychologists tell us that we are born with two fears: loud noise and falling. The rest are learned.

From your poem, that fear is overcome by letting it happen. I think poets like you are at their best when they just let the words come out while free-falling.
