flexible flyers

Magpie 44

broad shoulders
set  

leaning up against
the barn, come hither
i heard you cry
save me, baby
frozen in motion

honey colored
rugged
thrill ride
screaming eagle inked
i know we'd fit
ride me, baby
i saw us fly

emancipated
we hit the sky
thrusting wings forward
no speed limit
take me, baby
let freedom glide

Rene ~ 2010

  7. I have this identical sled propped up in my garage. I cannot part with it even though my kids would never consider using that old thing. Thanks for the memory jolt.

  11. I just moved you way up the list in my Google Reader. Can't believe I missed three of your posts. I just wasn't scrolling down far enough. Won't happen again.

i don't like eggs but you knew this already i know you're thinking such a terrible waste but it's not, you see i'm feeding them to the dog she loves them just as much as i know she loved you and the way you walked her as if every single thing she sniffed mattered to you as well sorry, dear pardon my red wine opera crowd violin string tugging (your words) i ramble at breakfast like a fussy percolator but you knew this already morning is when i am most honest and vulnerable i know that's why you left after dinner oh god dammit you i miss you so much what i did before us is a mystery and what i do now is insanity i'm frying up eggs just to smell them again and to perhaps coax you down, from wherever you are for breakfast did you know i believe that there is still a ghost of a chance Rene Foran ~  April 2011 photo by Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales click for more info
