Mike Gentile Poet Rhyme

If Wings Were Mine

If wings were mine to take the air
                 I’d worry not, why would I care
Imagine all the things I’d see
              If wings were mine to set me free  

Reflected by the aqua seas
                   I’d spin and twirl as if to tease
I’d wave to mermaids every day
                  and catch a kiss along the way

I’d tickle treetops with the dawn
                     And if I should begin to yawn
With clouds for pillows all around
              No need to ever touch the ground

If wings were mine to take the air
            I’d brush the sunshine with my hair
Just think how happy I would be
              If wings were mine to set me free
