Wings of an Angel.

You have eyes
but you cannot see.
You are a potato.

You have ears
but you cannot hear.
You are corn.

You have a mouth
but cannot speak.
You are the sea.

You have arms
but you cannot reach out.
You are an arm-chair.

You have legs
but you cannot walk.
You are a table.

You have wings
but you cannot fly.
You are an emu.

I have eyes that see,
ears that hear,
a mouth that speaks,
arms that reach out,
and legs that walk.
I am human.

Someday I dream
of having wings
that will guide me on
my Angel ride to Heaven.
