Weightless

I dreamed of sand castles so you built me an ocean
with coast to coast beaches so that i could sculpt my sand.
I breathed in wildflowers so you chased down every seed in the providence
 to build me a meadow, so that i could chase the scent.
I wished for starry nights where i was less lonely
so you chased down the moon and caught it in a jar.
 where it remained no bigger than your thumb.
You gave me everything and i never asked you just knew.
You knew i longed for flight so you built me wings or paper towns and mason jars
so that the sun reflected fractal forms of light....
you gave me wings to carry me to my dreams.
