For all the possibilities

In dreams
I am a child again,
running forth
in hope of love and flight;
surrounded
by promise,
by invitation,
and example.
Leap!
I lift a foot in hope
and spread
pink unfeathered wings,
and toss sweet corn
and scraps of bread
in gratitude
for all the possibilities
life holds.
