Flight At Sea

Pelicans fly side by side
royal in their stately glide
waxing eloquent at sea 
drafting skies and feeling free.

Side of heaven here on earth
glide in glorious rebirth
sea of summertime, so fair
free from worry, without care.

It's amazing how pelicans stay in perfect formation as they fly. And they do seem stately, regal even. Lovely poem, Laura! Best wishes in Charlie's fun contest. Hugs, Carolyn
