Feather

I wish I could be a feather,
So light and colorful.
I would drift through the weather,
And float so peaceful.

Surely the wind would arrive,
And send me off course.
But alas it's from this I'd derive
A pleasant, sweet force.

This would take me here and there,
And essentially then,
I would have ended up
Just about everywhere.

If I were a feather,
I'd take the time
To maybe appreciate life better,
Appreciate what is mine.

I suppose I don't need to be
What I have described
To be content with being me,
And to happily live my life.

-Allison S. De Arton
