STORY STARTER

'When I was little, I used to lay outside and reach my hands up to the sky above, convinced I could touch the great moving clouds if I just extended my arms a little further...'

Plane Ride
To be above the clouds
looking at the stars
impossibly bright
so close, yet so far
is to be on top of the world
Almost as if I can reach out
and use the Big Dipper
for my next meal
Constellations I’ve never seen
are within my grasp
A sea of clouds beneath me
Skating on by
on an invisible skating rink
I marvel at the sky
On this aerial path
it’s like I’m a part
of this ever changing canvas
and I never want it to end
