And we spread ourselves in the radiance of the light.

Inspired by photography by Megan Ong

In calming waters the clarity of it all

as we sit and bask in the evening spread,

And you hang by the loose leaf threads

Spreading your wings against the beating wind.

Because. The feeling is endless

Oh, I love the metaphors...the calming waters contain "clarity of it all", and "hanging by the loose leaf threads"...it is as if you are speaking of the universe and our place in it. Reading your words gives me a sense of belonging to the world.

simple, huh? :) endlessness is never simple :). or is it?...

I like that it is very simple. I am a bit confused by the period after the word "Because". Is it meant to be a comma or is it indicating a longer pause in that line? I love these lines best; "And you hang by the loose leaf threads/ Spreading your wings against the beating wind". Particularly the "loose leaf threads" bit, whose allusion to alliteration is very charming. This poem gives me a very good feeling. I think you did a wonderful job describing the environment in a very small amount of words. Pretty well done! :-)
