Poetry: Flying

Borrowed Wings

Born to ground
I dream of flight.

To the moon
and back again.
I soar by grace,
as do my friends.
With wisdom wrought
from borrowed wings,
I begin to write
what this heart sings.

    From the window of our airplane

    The fluffy clouds stretch endlessly

    Like a snowy landscape

    As far as the eye can see
