Clowning Around in the Clouds (poem)

Dancing and floating throughout the air

I somersault and I soar around

      without any notions or care

I float and I glide and I travel with ease

I am an aerial acrobat

       barely touching a trapeze

My heart is so light

       and so too are my wings

I fly and I float

       This is such a wonderful thing

And joyfully dancing and playing with me

     are numerous Angels and Spirits

         whom I can sense but can’t see

These fluffy clouds fulfill my heart

     It is the place where I desire to live

Up here it is so much easier to laugh

     And we are very quick to forgive

Past or present or petty thoughts

     these concepts hold no more meaning for me
I am just enjoying my time by clowning around

     in the air where I am blissfully free
