cool crane (etheree)

an

oddly

lanky crane

was often teased

by the shorter birds;

they called him ichabod,

stilts, or a walking beanpole,

but with a wingspan of six feet

and a pair of laughably long legs,

he rose above it and took it in stride

daydreaming

cotton candy clouds

float into my daydream,

as soft as goose down

and as sweet as the sugar

from which they were spun;

my weary mind is caressed

by their feathery fingers

of soothing pastel pinks

and hues of denim blues.

i feel like a fluffy kitten

in a cashmere sweater;

everything in my world

is just as it should be–

i love to daydream!
