Flying With the Birds

As night crept softly into my room My dreams began to spin I saw a flock of birds in flight And I wondered where they'd been I Soon was lifted up with them We soared above the earth We sailed beneath the fluffy clouds And sang with joy and mirth We landed back upon the ground where I stood among the flock They looked at me with curious eyes Some, I think were shocked But as the scene began to fade It was I who was amazed For I had flown with the birds that day I soared above and gazed Yes! I had flown with the birds that day And I could really see I had flown with the birds that day And I was really free (for "I dreamed" contest)
