Taking Flight from the Waves
December 21, 2014
Waves crashing on the shore
footprints lasting evermore
but no
the waves will wash away
the footprints made, day by day
Black, white, feathery wings
soaring up high to the new life it brings
the waves are changing moore to moore
but the endless sky holds an endless door
The sky! The sky!
Oh, what joy it brings
Taking flight froms the waves,
a seagull decides to fly
