Fly Like a Bird

It's been my good fortune
to have this close friend,
a possessor of license
for flying type things.

He owns his own aircraft 
for leaving the ground,
no wings fixed to lift us,
just blades spinning round.

A ride, two seat copter,
the feeling profound,
I feel as a bird must,
when flying around.

Really enjoyed reading this Mark. What a great experience for you. I’ve always wanted to go up in a chopper myself. Love the last two lines - must feel a bit like a bird flying around ‘Birds Eye view’. Lovely! Thank you for sharing :)
