Flying Fast and High Locking myself into the Airplane’s tiny bathroom, So that my elbows And knees brush the walls With the roar Of the jet engines, The feel of bumpy air And turbulence, realizing That beneath my boots Is 30,000 feet of Clouds and sky, As we soar and fly At 550 miles per hour— Passing over deserts, The Sierras, The Rocky Mountains, And the Great Divide, Over the prairies of Kansas, farms and ranches And small country towns On our way east. I know boys will look Up at our contrail, At the tiny speck Of this glinting airliner Far up and think “When I grow up I’ll travel the world On those silvery wings And leave this Heavy earth behind, Someday, some way When I’m grown”. I know because I was the same When I was a boy With my longing For flying high And now, in my Sixties, here I am, Going home After so many years Traveling the wide And wonderful and Pain filled world As a man who Still has that Little boy Inside my heart— Excited, eager and In awe of now Flying so fast And so high.

Free Yourself for Your Coming Good In order to be free To create a clear space To see and greet all the good That is now waiting to flow Into your life… Consciously let go of all the Painful losses and experiences That hurt you so much In the past… And open your heart, Here and now, To share and receive all the Love, grace and blessings That are on their way To you in this very moment.
