A Dream

She stood at the edge,
Where the cliff met the sea.
She closed her eyes
And deeply she breathed.
She inhaled the salty air,
Felt the warm ocean breeze
And for a moment, for that moment,
She truly believed.
She lifted her arms
And smiled to the sky above.
She leaped from the cliff,
Soaring up like a dove.
Her arms sprouted wings
And she flew over the sea.
But when she opened her eyes,
She realized it was only a dream.
She sighed and sat down
On the cliff by the sea.
Her thoughts continued to fly
And her mind filled with glee.
For it was then that she realized
She was right where she was meant to be.
She closed her eyes and inhaled the sea breeze.
She laid back on the grass and let her thoughts run free.
