Flying Dreams

Flying high
Flying high, high up in the sky
Growing bigger,
bigger with every second, every minute
Her dreams flocked around her,
swarming and buzzing to be fulfilled
But soon there became so many
they broke,
they split off from the main pack,
the main dream
Her dreams flew off without her,
without her help
They flew high,
high up in the sky,
hitching rides to a place
where they could be fulfilled
They flew over the highest mountains,
over the lowest valleys
to the other side of the world
They were dropped there
dropped on the ground
And others came around 
and picked them up
The dreams flocked around
the new ones
begging to be released, fulfilled
But the dreams soon burst away
flying in the distance
to another place
halfway around the world
They kept flying,
flying to a place to be fulfilled
They flew for miles, and miles
always stopping, but 
always leaving
They spread their dream,
the main dream
shared amongst all dreams
Hope,
a future spread with them,
until everyone had the same dream
Until everyone was filled
with the same hope
They came together,
flying high on dreams
The same dream was formed,
throughout the land

Peace
