I Want to Fly
Watched three hawks this afternoon, they had their wings outstretched and seeming floated in the sky. They circled and effortlessly rode the thermals high into the sky. They circled about as they soared higher and higher.
I watched them become smaller as they floated higher and higher. I wondered what they saw below them, so much of the world trapped on the surface while they drifted with freedom in the air. I envied them their ability to soar above the rest of the world, experiencing freedoms that mankind can never fully know.
