Wooed by Gravity

Wooed by gravity, she closes
her eyes and falls from heaven
as the sun dazzles her wings.

    Her sly smile, rapture in free fall. What I wouldn’t give to feel that! Breathless, this one knocked the wind out of me, left me enamored, envious and, as always, impressed with your stunning captures!!
