flight of dreams
the weight of longing

flight of dreams
were they to avoid sky
could they still fly
the weight of longing
for vaccines
for good ole days
in muted shades
hush you rainbows carrying
pots of gold

If only everybody would act sensibly when a crisis such as Covid threatens. Sadly there will always be those that ignore the danger and put their own and others lives at risk.
Sensible child! And sensible grandmother too, obviously, for encouraging this.
"flight of dreams / were they to avoid sky / could they still fly" -- good question. If our dreams avoid flight, we are sadly grounded.
This -- both of these -- are beautiful.
'Flight of dreams' indeed, they will come again for sure, my dear Gillena...
She's a good girl, has been taught well. :)

Lovely and wise Gillena! Thank you for your well wishes of safety. I am feeling much better today. I got my second vaccine and it knocked me off my feet quite literally. 💙

Sounds like a sweet visit.
Glad your granddaughter can visit you and like the top collage.
Beautiful troiku. Yours last week inspired me to write one also.
Again pretty cards, Gillena. I like your 'flying' poem and how you worked it in with the vaccine items. Mine was a child wishing to fly, to fly away.
..
I love the flight of dreams poem and especially the first stanza
Awww cutie!
Sweet wisdom of a child. Love the flying poems. It's a beautiful lift to my Monday.
I can picture a sweet child wearing a mask to visit Grandma. Lovely thought!
