I opened my eyes with a sensation <br />of a feather’s lightness <br />surrounded by a green world, <br />I tried to make sense of it all <br /> <br />voices in my head encouraging <br />me to relax, to partake with <br />the peace I was feeling inside <br /> <br />a sudden thrust upwards and <br />a crisp breeze passed me by <br />I couldn´t explain when or why <br />but I found myself in a fearless <br />flight <br /> <br />How’s this possible, where am I? <br />“spread away your wings and get <br />ready for the ride” <br /> <br />I did as I was told, and in the blink <br />of an eye, I was plunging steady <br />towards a deep blue pool of light <br /> <br />cool sprinkles of water showered <br />my face far and nigh and in a <br />sound of a guitar’s string I was <br />heading towards the vast <br />cerulean sky <br /> <br />I descended again in rapid circles <br />earthbound, scanning a wide spread <br />color-dotted piece of land <br /> <br />and then I was before a mediterranean <br />sight, mingling among ancient memories <br />of a long gone time, sitting on the ruins <br />of a magnificent past... <br /> <br />“this is what freedom is all about, kindred <br />spirit of mine, you’ve felt it and seen it <br />through a sparrow´s eyes, remember the <br />lesson when you return to your own tribe” <br /> <br />Copyright ©Mystique®2007 <br /> <br />Copyright ©Alberto J.
