To be able to fly would be such a thrill
just thinking about it is enough to give me a chill.
Soaring and coasting on any thermal
gives joy that can only be primal.
The wind in your face as you turn to and fro
creates excitement that causes others' envy to show.
Light as a feather surveying the land
seeing the whole of creation under God's command.
Dominating the sky on a powerful wing
with that knowledge you can't help but sing.
And so ends another grueling test
for even the mighty must eventually rest.
Another day of climbing and diving
brings happiness in dreams of what tomorrow may bring.
