Before I had ever seen an airplane Run down a runway Lifting off purposely into the sky Drawing in it's ground wheels Sailing, soaring Vanishing from sight I flew.. Because.. I desired to Without aid Of steel mechanics I spread my arms Out from my side I drew my legs up To my torso And with the lightness Of a butterfly I flew over houses Land and sea Flying only Because.. I knew I could In your dreams No one tells you You can't And if they had I would have said JUST watch me! |

I enjoyed this a lot. Soaring through the sky by means of myself and the wind only sounds great. And, yes, in dreams anything is possible!!! |

I've always wanted to fly. I think it would be an amazing feeling up there above the clouds, with the wind, and...oh, don't get me started I could go on for hours. Joy |

dgvarner, Now my secret is out I still am a child of 51, maybe starting on my second childhood. Never thought of a children's book, you want to illustrate it! Some glad morning when this life is or, I'll fly away just popped into my head. Free flying, sound wonderful to me, I always did envy the birds! |
