The Eagle's Way

The eagle soared above the fray,
Avoiding the hoopla below.
He had something else to do this day,
No time to stop and “play”.

Were we to soar with eagles thus
We too must miss the fuss.
Strength is not always shown
If every fight we claim as our own.

It’s hard to with eagles soar 
Many will this statement roar.
True it is to those who choose
To always with turkeys snooze.

The moral of the story goes
Way above the common woes.
Live above the “common way”
And eagles strength display.
