Flight of Fancy

The sky on my walk today!

Flight of Fancy

Through blue-eyed skies I flew just once

so far above the crowds

I tipped my hat to the morning sun

and nodded to the clouds

I took a flight of yellow fancy

and soared where the songbird sings

I did not know in freedom's moment

that life would clip my wings

In the trees I landed hard

my wings were broken fast

I jettisoned fuel and did not burn

but I thought I'd flown my last

So I took a sad and silent stroll

and now my heart's rebounded!

'til I soar once more in blue-eyed skies

 I was only temporarily grounded
