Change #757

My back hurt

My feet worse

I was exhausted

I felt defeated

The restless days

The sleepless nights

This playful heart

This hungry brain

A weight shouldered

A stress contained

No time remaining

No patience same

Dropped my guard

Dropped the pain

Took deep breaths

Took in everything

Chose timely change

Chose without notice

Set new direction

Set plan forward

Picked favorite trinkets

Picked necessary things

Let burdens lay

Let junk remain

Shouldered loaded pack

Shouldered listing pride

Turned priorities focus

Turned avoiding collision

Boarding flight #757

Boarding this morning

Never say never

Never ran faster

Changing my life

Changing in time

Saving this adventure

Saving from disaster

Smiles are showing

Smiles stalk sunrise

Chasing this heart

Chasing dreams surprise

Writing chapter’s end

Writing books again

Painting foreign colors

Painting brighter pictures

Learned Tree’s promise

Learned flight’s secret

Neverland’s exploration ending

Neverland’s departure operation

With loaded baggage

With affairs attended

One way ticket

One half missing

Soul looking upwards

Soul speaking whispers

Hope praying sounds

Hope you’re proud

Yah excited, love?

Yah watching today?

Come and play

Come say hey
