A Moment in the Sky
Sep 1, 2018 · 1 min read

Suddenly, I stopped thinking
about my future, my age,
my children and how long
so many nights have been.
I asked the flight attendant
“How high are we?”
“About 13,000 feet” he said
Moments come and go.
They fall at your feet and lie
in a buried life.
The rest just slept,
it had been a long flight.
I saw the clouds pass by
“When I was a child I thought
I could walk on the clouds” said the flight attendant.
The wisdom of youth
sweeping through his mind.
So I went back to my seat
to listen to Kraftwerk
and Autobahn.
