FREE FALLING by Scott Utley
In this dream, I am falling free without fear.
Suddenly, my descent is intercepted by swift moving clouds.
Each one has a distinct face yet they all share the same radiant smile.
They carry me along for thousands of miles,
pointing out strange and wonderful lands.
The spectacular sight below of fantastic creatures roaming free
upon a paradise found makes my heart tremble like fine rice paper.
In this super world unfolding,
predators are never triumphant because predators are never born.
Without warning, the cloud faces are gone.
I continue gliding along the path of the rising sun
in the company of a thousand golden eagles.
I soar around our mother earth sailing effortlessly
on a grand solar wind in the company
of a thousand beautifully plumed golden eagles,
and the sky goes on forever.
