I wish to be free

To travel the world

Drifting through currents

Of air 

And sea


Whistle along

With the wind

And birds

Create our own song

A sweet melody


And when the rains pound

Hills, Valleys, and ground

Our ears open

To a cacophony 

Of sound


All throughout

Planet Earth

I fly 

Zipping through

Neverending sky


Weeping willows

Mountain tops

Sparkling seas

Beauty

Never stops


Next I dive

To the depths of the sea

Underwater creatures

Fill me with glee


My travel has unfurled

How nature has kissed

Every part

Of this wide world


What would life be

If I was a bird

A playful dolphin

Buzzing bee


Dreams

 Of all 

The beauty I’d see


A wishful thought

Yet one I keep


The author's comments:

I wrote this poem for an English project. Our teacher gave us various prompts, but this one just seemed to come to me as I was sitting at my dining room table, wishing to be traveling the world. The "Planet Earth" tv show on Netflix with David Attenborough was a major inspiration for all the images portayed in my poem. Once my work was graded, my teacher left a comment telling me to publish to teenink.com, so here I am. Enjoy Nature's Beauty!
