Falling is Flying

With my head in the clouds,
For forever I climb.
Thoughts remain vacant,
But I never mind.
Falling is Flying,
when you can let go.
This place in time,
Is just a piece of my soul.
Falling is Flying,
when your in control.
This life spent in limbo
And you don't even know.
I Fall.
I Fly.
I live in this moment
I won't say goodbye.

Wow! Thanks!!

This inspired flashback feelings ....

As an old, long ago worn out pilot, I'm reminded of the exhilarating feeling when the wheels leave the ground; lifting the landing gear lever and feel the accelerating nudge as the gear doors close. A slight drop of the nose and I'm riding the air as the ground falls further and further below. I am in control of the streamlined beast, something I can't surrender until I'm done.

Surrounded by hundreds of dials, levers and switches, half of which can ruin my day if flipped at the wrong time, or not flipped at the right time. Dials that I hope are telling the truth.

The blabbing of the air traffic controllers are like a symphony where I know when it's my part to sing solo.

A flick of the autopilot switch with one hand, then a grab for the still hot coffee with the other.

What moment to live in.
