Life is a free fall
Plunging through darkness;
A slip from the high wire
With no safety net
Down below and the Earth
Climbing higher to meet us
As we plummet headlong
Forsaking regret.
But oh, my! The feeling,
The exhilaration,
The pump of emotion
Coursing through veins
Set to burst, primed and ready
To seek out adventure,
To loose from the doldrums
And break from the chains.
The wind speeding past
Scorches tender young skin,
And eyes are a blur
As they try to recall.
Braced for the crash
At the end of the ride,
We laugh at the wind...
And enjoy the fall.
