Fly

Wings flapping she
Soars and 
flutters 

In a swirl of 

               N
        I             B
    A                     O
R                             W
           colors

She glides through the clouds
Touching the sky like magic
A pause— 

Only a small moment
Yet it feels like forever 
She beats her wings
But doesn't fly 

She falls, 
Gliding toward the ground
She spins around

Wishing she could fly 
Hoping she could fly
Believing she could fly

Her wings flap 
She soars
Fluttering and 
Reaching for the sun 
She touches the sky 

And flies.
