DRAWN TO THE SKY (pantoum)

by Grey Ajurahck   Aug 2, 2007


The restless wind beckoned today,
Come, come ride the open road,
With nary a thought, I'm on my way,
Leaving cares behind, rid of such a heavy load

Come, come ride the open road,
Where daffodils laugh in the sun's shine,
Leaving cares behind, rid of such a heavy load,
No worries on a day this fine

Where daffodils laugh in the sun's shine,
Birds and butterflies dance as clouds smile,
No worries on a day this fine,
As time slows and the world softens for awhile

Birds and butterflies dance as clouds smile,
With nary a thought, I'm on my way,
As time slows and the world softens for awhile,
The restless wind beckoned today.
