Matthew Brackley Poet Ballad

I Skimmed the Earth

I skimmed the earth......... 
In a blur of speed 
The flexed wing...... 
The heart to lead 
 
For, flying is everything.... 
I skimmed the Earth 
The feel of wind on my face 
The flying place............ 
The feathered wing 
 
Wings, aglow.............. 
Not far to go 
I skimmed the earth 
What I look for............ 
In my heart ,I know 
 
To fly through...... 
The Earths' beauty 
Wings perfectly true 
The blur of it all 
Such wings! 
I cannot fall.... 
 
They cannot know......... 
Why I fly so 
I skimmed the Earth 
My heart aglow 
 
The whys.......... 
The what fors.......... 
Natures' laws 
The heart flies.............. 
Just cause.......... 
Skimming the Earth.............. 
My true sense of worth
