“I want to fly,”
Said Jim one day.
“I want to fly far, far away.”

“I want to see my house from the sky,
But I don’t really want to say good-bye.”

“I want to breathe the finest air,
I want to feel the wind in my hair.”

“I want to fly around the world,
And I know to you that may seem absurd.”

“But I once had a dream that I so gracefully flew.
But it was only a dream because I flew with you.”

A sweet, short poem I thought of when watching a bird flying outside my window
