Everyday
I Fly
Everyday I fly so high
I touch the sky.
I feel the waves of black and
purple sky
And my hand feels the ripples
of light blues.
Everyday I fly so high
I touch the sky.
I catch the moon
and caress the sun
while playing with the stars.
Everyday I fly so high
I touch the sky.
My fingers dance in Saturn's
rings
and feel Neptune's
chill.
I admire Jupiter's colorful
moons.
Everyday I fly so high
I touch the sky.
All by myself, in a happy
room.
Only with my imagination and
dreams.

Thank you dear poets for your kind words and encouragement. I recognize some of you from your comments on Anushi's earlier submission 'Ode to my Friends' (Charlene McCutcheon, David Fox). I cannot describe what an honor this is. Thank you, thank you and thank you. David, Anushi has been writing for the past few years. It is only in the past 2-3 months that we have been confident to submit her work. With best wishes, Raveesh Varma (parent)
