I Like To Fly

I like to fly. Low... Just two inches above the surface of the ocean. I like to play and draw circles on my ground. I like my sea calm. I hear the gentle gushing of the waves: It soothes me. I never have to run away from my sea. And, of course, there'd be the moon overlooking me. I like my moon full... It shines a friendly yellow in the sky, and paints a magnificent portrait of me on my ocean floor. And then there are the fisherman and their boats... (But tonight, they are not here) They create ripples on my sea as they slowly row away. They, too, like to fly. This is my world, And in my world, I fly...
