A Wish......................

My breathing is slow 
and calm 
I know where to go, 
cross this river, 
come hither 

No need for words 
I am with the birds 
I sprout wings, 
feathers and things 
A sniff of wind on sea 
This is meant to be 

This change, 
is really,....... not that strange 
For what we are, 
what we are meant to be 
becomes clear, 
you see.......... 

I have got just there..........., 
First 
To soar in the air, 
heart ready to burst 

Golden sun 
on silvery grey wings 
Oh my! 
These mysterious things! 
I have won 
Changed am I! 

I have found this light, 
so very bright, 
upon these wings 
Mysterious things! 
My heart ready to burst! 
oh my! 
I have got there first! 
Changed have I ! 

Bright light, 
feels so right 
Wings of silvery grey 
This wish you see............... 
is what I am meant to be 

Silvery grey wings, 
mysterious things 
Changed have I! 
Dreams to aspire 
Dream to fly, 
on a sea of sapphire
