Let Yourself Go

wind gushing through your hair

the beautiful sound of wild- life

the many possibilties of where you could be going

open your eyes and see the ocean beneath you

you are not swimming

feel, as if you are as free as a bird

feel the warmth of the sun on face

look up and see clouds close above

You are in the great blue sky

Flying
