(Entry for Glenn Hughes Poetry Contest, submitted June 19, 2024.)
I want to have wings. I want to fly over the bays and into the sky. Don't try to stop me, Don't even try. Don't even think to ask me why. I want to have wings that will convey, convey me back to another day. Take me to where I feel the rays, the light that never goes away. Again and again I pause and pray please give me wings to fly away; away to my queen so I can stay, even if it's only for just one day.
