Fly Baby Fly

Fly baby, fly fast. Fly hard today.
Your mama’s making pancakes,
And your tormenter’s away.
The animals are loose, and the kitchen is afire.

Take your chance, fly, baby, fly!
You can escape out the window,
Climb down the apple tree.
You can go alone, or fly away with me.

Save yourself, honey,
That’s all I want for you.
I love you heart-heartedly, this is all I can say.
Freedom is a mere window away.
Fly, baby, fly!

Thank you. I am always coming up with something goofy, and I think who would even like this? I think of you sometimes when I do this.

Once in a while, my cat will bring in a bird that's still alive, and when she lets it go it flys all over the house, and I try to steer it out the door or window with a broom - anyway this made me think of that, love 'freedom is a mere window away' - apt metaphor for life, too!

I was thinking how we sometimes believe our lives are sealed up, when all we have to do is take one little tiny chance.
