Evening lanterns, Strung on the fishing line, Glimpses of light In my path. Everything from before Is not important anymore. A web of good reasons To leave ...
There is no salt In my eyes, There is no pepper In my words. No more pain In my heart. I close my eyes And I fly away. I absorb the freedom Of my flight. I open my eyes And I see the seas; Sea of wind, Sea of color lines Sea of spring..
Everything achievable Is not significant Anymore. Only something lighter than air, Deeper than dreams, Brighter than stars Makes sense to me

About this poem:
the lines came to me during an evening walk in the mist .. the lanterns seemed to be hanging in the air
This poem paints a lovely canvas of Contemplation and freedom Lily, To read a few times was like a peaceful meditation. Beautifully written....the last stanza especially.
Many thanks Mick for your amasing comment..as usually you understood all correctly. I don’t even know where it came from to me- a completely extraordinary feeling of lightness, weightlessness ... I just enjoy it Lily
Inspiration is universal and it brings light to those who choose to see. Lanterns of wisdom guiding your way as you understand things. Offering light is what gives it power. Your are good writer so keep using your gifts!!

"Everything achievable

Anymore.
Only something lighter than air,
Deeper than dreams,
Brighter than stars
Makes sense to me"
