First flight of eaglet

The first stretch of wings Is when you make it flap Oh, don't you lose balance You really can make it, that's for sure You're not to be afraid You're not to be afraid The second you hop Know it is coming The first step of flying Is when you take it easy The first step of flying Is feeling at ease. Time after time, I tell you follow me Time after time, I wait till you are ready The first flight we need to see The first flight little one The first flight I need to see The last step of flying Is when you fly below me There is still lot to learn But I will teach you, all that I know The first flight I need to see It is a sure test to me as your mom Time after time, eagles fly high Time after time, we eagles fly high The first stretch of wings The first flight of young The first hunt of young Makes us best parent eagles. Inspired by: FIRST STEP OF LOVE (SOULFULLY LIVE IN THE CITY OF ANGELS (2004)Hughes/Thrall)

Beautiful poem. If we all had teachers like the eagle moms in your poem, I bet we would all fly high.

It is surprising to know that birds take parenting seriously. It is wonderful to know the bird kingdom, they put many of us to shame when it comes to mothering. so endearing. thank you for this happy visit dear poet. Cheers.

It needs courage and daring to take the first step. Once the eaglet flaps its wings and hops, it has passed the first test. Once it feels at ease, it is ready to fly into the air. The mother will be there by its side giving it direction. Soon it will soar higher and higher to dizzying heights. Lovely poem, dear Thriveni.

How beautiful and thoughtful one that is uplifting this is, so well woven dear thriveni, i love especially “The last step of flying Is when you fly below me There is still lot to learn But I will teach you, all that I know” that made my heart full, shows what a selfless soul you are willing to share what you know and have with others too! And thats love, unconditional. Pleasure reading this.
