Joy rises
over the earth today
as the thermals
‘neath my wings
lift them to soaring
it’s off into space
my dreams I’m exploring
lifting me aloft
in free floating flight
my spirit’s alive
in this sacred delight
left to my heart’s abandon
my destination random
I hear the earth’s whisper
the breeze’s sigh
they say
this is how it feels to fly
the soft sounds waft
lilting into the sky
I’m lifting
drifting
as high
and far
as thermals will permit
my searching soul
eager to submit
as I feel the winds
take me
soaring high
into a brilliant sky
leaving the clouds
far below
like ever rolling
pillow‘d snow
until all I hear
murmuring in my ear
is the voice
of the breeze
and the song
in my soul
watching the world
bend away
over the infinite horizon
I see life
from a new perspective
seeking clarity
my new-found objective

my dream since a child
to soar the blue heaven’s wild
that my young prayer be heard
to fly like a bird
now is when
I at last begin
the revealing journey
far out and deep in
swept up
and away
in ever-climbing rise
ascending today
with wide open eyes
high above this world of ours
the tiny blue planet
among the vast stars
into low altitude
outer-space
a child’s smile
upon my face
silently upward
as joy rises
