Footfalls and Satellites

image courtesy Magpie Tales

Leap the light, fly over suns
This puddle universe
May have rules that break heels;
Its dances for fins.

Or

Leap through the new land's skin
Sharp heels cracking--
Dive into upturned eyes,
A jackknife angel.

Or

Leap beyond the eternity
Buses won't wait
Nor friends remain patient,
Waiting in the rain.

      thanks. :) I'm working on finishing a few pre-holiday projects, which makes me feel like I'm getting things done.

    I love the last stanza about friends growing impatient in the rain.
