Feathers on the Wind

Broken wings flock together 
But once they flew so very high
Now they wilt so tarred and feathered
Their spirit spilt across the sky

Broken wings mend together 
But not in the wink of an eye
They weep for their long lost feathers
With too many tears left to cry

Broken wings laugh together 
Once past pain slowly drifted by
The rain helped to mend their feathers
Now watch them fly so very high
