One word becomes one idea, becomes one sentence, becomes one poem, becomes one story. It must start from just “one word”. Today my one word is “Wings”.
WINGS
We all have a pair of wings at our
disposal. Whether we choose to use those wings to soar towards something
wonderful, to fly away from something ugly, or to lift ourselves or someone
else up in order to move on - the desire and opportunity will always be there.
Welcome those wings, acknowledge those wings, embrace those wings - and spread
those wings and fly.
Spread your wings so broad and proud
Fly high in the sky,
flap them often
flap
them loud
Allow
them to carry you far and wide
To the depths of glory; to the house of
pride
Soar
quickly when the burdens are near
As a bird in flight with ne’er a fear
Dip
down to the ground,
to the ones in need
Lift
them up with precision,
with power and speed
Guide
them to a place of peace
Where you’ve flown so many a time
Where
they may rest, for a moment or two
Until strong enough to shine
Hide
them well from the woes of life;
from the double-edged pain
that cuts like a knife
May
they seek refuge,
within
the shadows of your wings
Led
by blissful gliding
where their heart and soul sings
When
the time has come to set them free
Let them go with calm, and soar with glee
Now
be on your way; fly high and proud
Spread those regal wings
flap them e’er so loud!
