Spirited

Here on the ground

the days are still painted

with enough grace

to fill any heart that’s present

We may not be flying

in the way we sense we someday will,

but we can feel high

in the confluence of skill and opportunity,

of character and connection,

of sun and scent and wind

and the myriad gifts of the hour.
