Up above the stale air
Defying gravity
Staring with childlike curiosity
Watchful of the scene below
Nonchalant detachment
A thought!
“Why all the fuss”
Feather soft sky
Above and beyond
Floating aloft
The commotion below
Euphoric perfection…
Pop!
…With a heavy heart, she returns…

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate you all taking the time to visit and offering support through your comments...~.^
ReplyDeleteThe Euphoria she felt was from a nde
{near death experience}
I adore this, no, I ADORE this. You captured the essence of a near-death experience so well, as the Spirit hovers above the body in detached ecstasy. Then as the Spirit returns to the body...it IS so much like a POP or jerk (been there). I see many interpreted the reentry as a disappointment, but the beauty of it is that the person is still alive...yet remembers that death can be euphoric perfection and not something to be feared. AWESOME WRITE...AWESOME PICTURE...AWESOME YOU!
