Sequence High Fliers

Speckled starlings sing with delight over flying ants in nuptial flight I watch a swift swoop and pass above an old meadow ,lush with grass My fingers reach to touch that sky where swallows circle,then southward fly

Brian, I love the feel of this one. My husband wishes he could reach his fingers to the sky and fly like a bird. This poem captured that delightful sense of flight and longing.
