POETRY OF FOOTPATHS & FLIGHTS...Regina Kandraska

Footpaths and Flights

When I loved you -

my mind and spirit soared

to heights I had not known.

And when you left,

I thought the depth of my sadness

touched the center of the Earth.

But when I returned to myself...

a simple footpath,

that I travelled...

with mindful, measured steps,

gave me peace and pleasure.

And now, again,

I seek to soar into the sky of joy...

My life has been a meshing of

footpaths and flights.
