"Heart's Flight"

              "Heart's Flight"

 

If the heart could soar

On eagles' wings,

T'would never wish

To land on earth again.

Oh what wonders one could see,

While flying, oh so loftily,

And if t'were storm clouds ahead,

One could bank, then fly overhead.

Rising above all of earth's pain,

Wings outstretched to catch the wind,

Free to look where naught has been

And to choose when to descend.

Landing high on mountain crests,

Avoiding valleys that depress,

Feeding hunger so easily

Then once again---flying free.

Yes...if the heart could soar,

Upon an eagle's wings,

T'would never wish to land

Upon this earth---again.

How I've wished to soar like this... lifted above the pain and fear... Yes, it's true... we'd never want to come back now... So beautifully voiced.
