April Poem a Day Challenge – NaPoWriMo #6

This one was inspired by a prompt from Danielle.  She was getting ready for her flight to Vancouver for Verses and decided that since she was thinking about flying we should all write poems about flying … or cheeseburgers, she was hungry, too.  I chose flying.

I have never had a flying dream

I’m afraid of heights

     Actually, I’m afraid of falling

     from a great height

Do you ever walk across a bridge and feel like you are

     consciously

     keeping your body from

     flinging itself off?

I don’t dream of flying

 

Be Lovely to Each Other,

Laura
