Cliff Jumps


Jumping off the edge
Letting go of everything
Over rocks and trees
Like flying in a dream
Pursuing what we want to feel
Knowing our chances as we aim
The risk is to be alive
And not reaching further
*
Plunging through the surface
Projecting fast straight downward
Reaching greater depths
No where to go but upward
*
Green depths
Blue above
White bubbles surround me
As I emerge and gasp for air
*
The luxurious breath of life
The cliffs sure look nice
But that one up there
Are you aware
I somehow did it twice
Thats not my advice
These feats don’t make us wise
