Oh jealousy- a feather lighter than air <br />Buoyed high by the breeze <br />Soar and sway as you slice the sky <br />And write comments on the clouds <br />Penned by greed <br /> <br />And I with feet firm and toes curled in disgust <br />Shake my fist at what the privileged do <br />Shaken again for stealing my sky <br />Ah… the dream of the ages, and today <br />You beautiful feather, float on by <br /> <br />Lovely and silky, I think I’ll make a hat for you <br />Your days of flying are through <br />You’ll sit here on my head with me <br />And we’ll two together shake and curse <br />The other feathers flying free<br /><br />Keith Parsons<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oh-feather-lighter-than-air/
