I Skimmed the Earth
I skimmed the earth.........
In a blur of speed
The flexed wing......
The heart to lead
For, flying is everything....
I skimmed the Earth
The feel of wind on my face
The flying place............
The feathered wing
Wings, aglow..............
Not far to go
I skimmed the earth
What I look for............
In my heart ,I know
To fly through......
The Earths' beauty
Wings perfectly true
The blur of it all
Such wings!
I cannot fall....
They cannot know.........
Why I fly so
I skimmed the Earth
My heart aglow
The whys..........
The what fors..........
Natures' laws
The heart flies..............
Just cause..........
Skimming the Earth..............
My true sense of worth
