Birds

Birds
How they fly
Far as the finest sight
Could see

Birds fly 
With a freedom people
Wish to possess, how graceful we all could be
Like birds, with no fears ceasing
The journey to be taken

Free to fly in this endless sky
From dawn to twilight
Wish we could feel as free
As the creatures who make a
Home in the clouds and expanse
Of endless blue

Birds
Wings spread high
Above the city in endless blue
How you seem so free

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
