Standing still and calm
Yet going at jet speed
Going somewhere wonderful yet
Not going anywhere at all
Standing in the flow
Awash in streams of light
Etched in feathered glass
These are my airplane summers.
This is my 40th day of a second Lenten season. A quiet day by all accounts, but eventful just the same. It’s made me realise that daily life can be surprising and interesting, and made more beautiful by the golden veiled light of afternoon that steals into the close of day even as the year itself is closing.
Indebted to this for the first appearance of the phrase “airplane summers” and the person behind it.
Ok if I copy this and paste it on FB? [I’ll include Copyright notice]
Of course! Thanks very much for publicising my post! 😀
