I, Who Haven't Learned to Fly
by adewpearl
I, who haven't learned to fly, have learned instead to be content with my existence as earthbound entity, for nowhere in the heavens do dandelions grow, nor do the daffodillies put on their yearly show. I may not be companion to whippoorwill or jay, but oh such consolation I find in Earth's display. |
