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
