From Path To Bird In Flight

bird  in  flight
                        how many miles
                    seen many a sight
                 a flight full of smiles
                 –––––––––––––––                                                /
                  high  above  cloud                                              //
                   calling to its' friends                                     ..////
                      calling so very  loud                         ////////////    
              much encouragement it sends //////////////////////
           then it drops back–––––––––––––––––––––––/////
     <:checking all is well–––––––––––––––––––––––––<
           flight still on track–––––––––––––––––––––––\\\\\
             many a good tale to tell as well \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
                    of memories it tweets                        \\\\\\\\\\
                   of  every  feather it                                      \\\\
                  preens and  treats                                             \\
                 –––––––––––––––                                                \
                like flights must end
                 with  land  in  sight
                  they don't pretend
                      whistle delight
                          and  land
