Trying

by J. P. Davies

jump.
let your mind float.
remember this moment
make memorials
to what was

stand.
take your foot back.
plant your self
put down tap roots,
find a rock

fly.
spread your wingspan.
don't look down
there's no one there
on the ground

live.
run your breath out
feel the cold,
embrace the heat.
see don't look

Be.

A very good metaphore for life.
