100 Days of Poetry Challenge~ Day Nineteen/Monorhyme~ "Travel by Notes"

Earbuds in and the world goes away.
I run through forests. I rule the day.
I sit 'mongst trees whose branches sway
In the sweetened wind of May.
I soar through sunsets, colored clay,
I run through sand on salty bay.
Through forests bundled in a sleigh.
I swim through ocean foam and spray.
I am the lead in a Broadway play.
Dancing, twisting, bright sun ray.
Atop a horse that smells of hay.
Then I'm a wolf, alone, a stray;
A hawk, an eagle, and a jay.
I ride the back of a manta ray.
I sit alone at a french cafe,
Clutching close a red bouquet.
I watch the dying light of today
As the wind puts my hair in disarray.
I still need to write my 'We the People' essay,
But, until then, it's in musical I stay.
