seagulls in dreams

2F97BDD8-0333-442F-A8B9-2CD73E5850B7

whites afloat with momentous ballet moves

screeching sounds of freedom songs

salty wings frolic into a magical loop

ordinary, alone I look and walk along

with life force seagulls chase those freckled waves

under a lusty sky, watched by anticipating windows

time settles at the bay, and I poke at worms crawling into graves

sea shells laugh at the modest web footed flamingo

gazing intimately at the motions of these birds of grace

empties my heart to the rage in my veins

stinging open wounds, I had resisted to face

the seagulls fly out into the blue , leaving behind a ribbon like train

 

seagulls are exquisite and bring home the truths

dreaming of them rinses every damp tear

each crumb of heart, settles into a silent truce

soaring wings destined to be in dreams elsewhere
