A Wish To Fly

A childish whim, yet still I wish that I could fly Above the clouds and through the Milky Way For just one day to lift my soul into the sky And there among the gilded moonbeams play Above the clouds and through the Milky Way To drift and dream and perhaps see heaven’s gates And there among the gilded moonbeams play In the music of the spheres my heart awaits To drift and dream and perhaps see heaven’s gates For just one day to lift my soul into the sky In the music of the spheres my heart awaits A childish whim, yet still I wish that I could fly… 3/20/16
