Thank you nancy,

There is a line (L5)  in S1 that I missed when I proofed my earlier
proofings, so I've had to change a number of lines in S1 to get a better
fit. A few other changes also, but basically it remains the same (repost
below). Glad you enjoyed.

Thanks again,

frank

under the clouds
white grey and braids
spread as far as I can see
across heaven
this is the closest I've come
to the right hand of god
I believe this is as near
as I may ever be

leap forward in faith
trust in my wings
cloth-work patches
of the places I've been
look a long way down
and if the wind pushes me hard
I might find a way
to defy gravity

grasp at the air
hold on to the sky
I'm floating in circles
on up-draughts
and I am higher now
than I have ever been
this is more real
than placing my feet on the earth
rising up
to greet me down

bird of the sky
creature of air
when I dream at night now
I know
I can fly

~
