"iva" is pronounced [ee'-vuh]
º º º º º º
iva longs to fly
standing on the edge of the precipice
the long, wild ocean
hungry below
her eyes are closed
reigniting inner embers
with the breath of the ocean
her wings untested
her heart half-full
she calls his name
but cannot go to him
she will try
to try again
tomorrow
. . . . .
Also by iva:
iva by the sea
iva under his wings
