If I Had Wings

by ben thompson   May 17, 2007


If I had wings, together we'd soar
in majestic flight.
Streaking streams of sliver
adorning velvet nights.

Great wings of golden feathers
forged of metal not foul.
Mystifying and marvelously magical
I dare not ask how.

Passionate topaz skies meet our
embrace in cotton clouds.
Stealthily gliding across midnight
without making a sound.

Ancient majestic peaks as immense
as they are grand.
Like the endurance of our love,
forever hand in hand.

Our spirits becoming one, brilliantly
luminous is their glow.
Just a word from your soft lips
I shall make it so.

Dancing across sunny rays, relishing
the beams of the moon.
If only in my dreams then,
maybe someday soon.

    I liked this lines:

    Great wings of golden feathers
    forged of metal not foul.

    What a beautiful piece you have penned. Your imagery and word choices are amazing. You really have so much talent. You seem to be able to write about anything.

    Our spirits becoming one, brilliantly
    luminous is their glow.
    Just a word from your soft lips

    This stanza is really beautiful. I can imagine being one with my husbands spirit when my time comes. Excellent write.
