Pegasus Poem by PieCat Lady

Pegasus

Rating: 3.0


Sometimes
I long to soar away
with Pegasus
He of the shining wings
who
caught perpetually in a flash
of splendid silver flight
calls me
to forsake the earth beneath me
and swirl away eternity amid
the stardust of my dreams

But he, too, is a prisoner
pinned forever
to the evening sky

At once
a fleeting vision of
what may be
and a fixed reminder
of what is

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Written - is it really about 40? - years ago when I was a dreamer whose hopes for love were misgiven. Pegasus (which turned out to be actually Sagittarius) is my favorite constellation. Still, in the heart of my dreams, we ride!
