Falling for Icarus

Falling for Icarus

A Poem by Neville
"

its just one of them things I've been itchin to try... fly that is.. sorry fella's

"

Falling for Icarus

 

It was all too easy

Falling in love I mean..

 

Just look at

those shoulders man

 

And since he dumped

the excess plumage

 

Sshh babe, I feel

I might just somehow fly

Poor Icarus flying too close to the sun. He had a long way to fall. Falling in love is easy for some, not for others. You can fly without wings. I do, frequently. I soar in the thermals of my mind. And I will stop there. Your little piece of brevity has so much between the lines, I am I danger.... of writing a book :)

There's nothing better than a flight of fancy, Mr. P! It's the old adage, try it, learn from it.. then, go write a tongue in cheek patch of wisdom!
