Beguiling, isn’t it?
it almost glows.
Mysterious, maybe?
just a little.
Could we walk?
I think not.
But we could float,
ah yes.
How are we feeling?
just fabulous!
So what will we do now?
just continue to float.
We won’t go back.
Never.

stunningly beautiful conversation.

When floating is better than going back. A sad sad tale of many realities.

I guess they could go either way. Maybe sad, but maybe going to a different reality, and to a higher place…
