Give Me Wings


Give me wings so I can fly; I want to soar with winging birds up high. Give me wings so I’ll be free; my soul longs, to soar with my body. Give me wings and I will soar, through universes where, I’ve not been before. Give me wings to share the air; to revel with feathered siblings there. Give me wings of cotton fluff; feathers light, the air will brush. Give me wings to lift my spirit; I cannot stay entrapped and disparate. Give me wings to spread diversity; to brush it into every crack and crevice, purposefully. Give me wings to sweep away the darkness; and I’ll wing the world to alertness. Give me wings to release love’s elation; I will spread it across every nation. Just for one day...please give me...wings.
