Riding the wind across the prairie
Feeling the breeze engulf me
Letting the wild spirit in me take over
Lifting my wings and taking flight
Hearing the sounds of nature surround me
Soaring to the top of the world
Barely missing the tops of the evergreens
Sliding in graceful circles
Turning and turning following the air pocket
Then slowly gliding back down again to safety
To be awoken by my mother's presents
Gently reminded that my wings have yet to grow
