I wish to fly ~~ with beautiful wings to glide and float in the sky over rivers flowing to the ocean deep into the tangled forest where birds sing I wish to fly ~~ over ocean waves where the tides meet the shore at sunrises and sunsets when the sky is hued and to catch fish in creeks then, I will rest in a weeping willow tucking my head I wish to fly ~~ into the morn' after preening my lovely feathers oh, my dream is ending soon, I will be a girl again . . .

Often I get dreams of flying like a bird. Your poem has made me remember those ecstatic experiences. May you get powerful wings to soar ever high in the world of poetry. Lovely poem, dear Constance.
