FREE FLIGHT
by Steven D. Lightspring
after Through The Air by
Alix Hitchcock
We long to live
In fullest flow
Of air, of stream,
Though here below
Our highest dreams
We walk about
With hopes that heave us
Up and out
Within our dreams
Of day or night
We hunger for
Our hearts' free flight.
In fullest flow
Of air, of stream,
Though here below
Our highest dreams
We walk about
With hopes that heave us
Up and out
Within our dreams
Of day or night
We hunger for
Our hearts' free flight.
