"beneath their wings"


Much like Icarus, off they go; 
until condensation metes them 
reality's condescension:

 

     Whose goals and objectives
     are minute in life's greater scheme; 
     wings fashioned from floss harps-

 

     Yet they soar each firmament;
     nary a doubt would sway resolve;
     no tempest or tumult could dissuade.


If you chance upon a cloudless day
catch their echo of jubilant cries
and contemplate your turn to fly.
