A Moment’s Notice

It was a dream
Was it not?
Or, perhaps the mind slipping
Into wishes and whims

Consciousness
On every side
Questioning
Reality

Transformed,
I floated away
With the wind
Unencumbered,
Fearless.

A bird in the hand
Could be messy
But still
Better than two in the bush

Three birds
In a tree
Is a hat trick
Although
I’m not sure when
Or where the hat came in
To do his part

Light supersedes nature
Wonderfully hypnotic
Penetrating the soul
Transforming us
From chrysalis
To delicate winged flutters
