IN MY MIND’S EYE
I take a breath
I take a step
And look as far as I can see
Then close my weary jaded eyes
To dream (of you and me)
I take a breath
Another step
Upon this crumbling patch of earth
But in my mind
I have heaven-bound wings

dear sonya....mind soars up in love and takes wings to fly.lovely poem, enjoyed reading it..best wishes ritty
heaven bound steps....wings....simple but very powerful poem...deep love inside it
Exquisite verse about the power of love! I read it over several times. Very enjoyable and well written. Good job!
I like this one Sonya, rythmic and simple, the opening verse makes me start to smile. But the second verse falters, then 'crumbling'...breaks down in sadness. Can you roll it back...pick up the positive thread?

I would like to translate this poem
I love the simple language in this. The heaven-bound wings is a colorful image too. 'I take a breath Another step Upon this crumbling patch of earth' it's just perfection.
