My First Flight

I looked out from the nest Sun filtered through Leaves of richest green A perfect day too To put my wings to the test A perfect blue sky Could be seen Amongst leaves of richest green A time to fly For weeks now I waited patiently As down grew In to flying feathers That would take me up In to the blue From my tree The first step The first flight Is the hardest Courage too For, it is needed To fly In to the blue I am not an eagle Yet, I will fly like one To leave the nest In to the blue In to the sun I stood on the edge Looked upwards to the sky On my first flight This was my time My test For, I must fly I leapt off In to the unknown Wings beating furiously I climbed skyward I could not believe That this was me I am not eagle Yet, I will fly like one I have left the nest I live in the blue With wings of sun
