In Flight… Poem by Mehreen Tahir

I’m in flight to a land far away,
amid the clouds so icy and gray.
It is a feeling of freedom, of calm,
a feeling of pleasure, the nature’s charm.
The sky around me seems to have no boundary,
the beauty grows as I fly deeper into the scenery.
I leap and fly up high,
below and around me clouds roll by.
It is a feeling I cannot describe,
all I can say is I am mesmerized.
I fly along and stare around,
feeling my destination is already found.
