Wings To Fly

My soul is eager to return again And climb the steep trail where stones fall free ~ Among the small robins that drink the rain And the sweet meadowlarks that sing for me I follow the path overlooking the hills My heart feels envy as falcons hover ~ ~ A startled heron causes my eyes to thrill I watch silver wings break free from cover ~ How brilliantly fly glittered wings of wonder If only I too, could circle the earth! To behold the world from the sky, and ponder Why not each creature have wings at birth? Free earth’s bondage into luminous air? With daydreamers flight, I am almost there
