Flying

Flying above the fray....

Carry me on wings singing sweetly, 

above the dirt and rock. 

Azure skies greet with a windswept kiss, 

I embrace their loving arms. 

Away with the turmoil of the terrestrial, 

gravities hold has no hold over me. 

I will abide in the celestial in a cloud covered sea.  

I will follow the sun for a day eternal, 

never to be bewitched by darkness and night. 

I will make my habitation with warmth, 

in the glory of Sol's smiling face.  

Keep your ignorance on the ground, 

I want the revelation of the heavens, 

to see the fullness of the horizon, 

to find that place where the earth meets the sky.  

I will ascend far above the doldrums of life. 

I will move far beyond what I could, 

trapped with my feet planted in the ground.  

There is no fighting or strife, 

when flying these heights, 

there is only peace and freedom.

There is hope for tomorrow just beyond the horizon....
