Flying Lessons

Today being Sunday 

I went 

To the new age church

     Service

Where everything is positive !!!

Positive thinking -

     Smiling 

Being kind 

     To your mind :-)

Singing joyful songs 

Believing wonderful 

     Things 

And now 

I just want to 

     Hide 

In the cool darkness 

Of my house 

     And sulk 

Not that I'm depressed -

But last night's dance has left me 

Tired 

And I wonder -

If you'll ever pick your arms up -

Dear 

Do you know how disappointing 

That is? 

Obviously 

You don't -

I must give up 

My desire for perfect 

Form -

And content myself 

With as many turns and 

Whirls 

As I can get 

When I escape from the 

     Confines

Of your lazy 

Arms 

My last partner was 

A natural -

We could fly 

And spin 

Again and again

But he was also 

Mean 

And you are 

Kind 

And

I have learned

The difference 

I am "positive" enough 

To hope 

That we can learn 

To fly 

Together.
