two birds
at the edge of the launching pad
lift off, time after time
*
so many ways,
so many different ways—
the sky’s the limit!
Wings aloft: flexing, stretching, tucking, fluttering, bending, soaring high, dipping low, turning around to hurry back and do it over and over. What fun! All the while we sat there down below, sitting and sitting, sipping coffee, people watching, bird watching, and chattering. That was fun too.
