Ramblings of a Wandering Luney

Jump, dive, grab
I miss... again...
Seeking, chasing, grasping
I have it not
I wonder why I even try
To chase the wind
Running circles never ceasing
For what is never to be seen
Invisible query ever calling
Gasping, collapsing,
All strength drained
Determination never waned
One last try
Feeble clutched fist
Do I dare to look inside?
Ever teasing, never ceasing
The breeze moves on
Replaced with a hush
Another day, maybe, I'll try again
Maybe than, than...
No, why oh why
Am I bound to the impossible
Doomed to chase the uncatchable
Maybe someday, someday
I'll be able to simply dance
Spin in the breeze
Join with the leaves
in their mad rotations
the branches lifted glad exaltations
Wait, I feel it returning
I must go
Jump, dive, grab,
I miss...again...

Sometimes I get so weird, I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep, it's my lullaby
