A Trebuchet for Dreams (Free verse) by D. $ Fontera
Launch me into position
Way up among the satellites
High above the atmosphere
Throw me upwards to heaven
And I will be a meteor
A red-hot lightning bolt
Collected from the stars
Just catch me when I fall
Or I will bury you in fantasy
And strike you down in ecstacy
Find that trebuchet for dreams
And I will not delay
The sky is calling my name
Oh what sweet deliverance
To look down on taller men
With my feet off the ground
But space is no place for me
I will marvel at its serenity
And here is where I care to be
I hope for dreams impossibly
