Flight

I'd like to fly
outside of dreams
i'd take in sights
on gossamer wings

I'd float like a butterfly
to heaven and back
on windswept wings
height i'd not lack

If i could fly like
an eagle soars
I'd venture to places
never seen before

If wings were truly
my form of flight
i'd surely try with
all my might

To go to places
that are torn
and spread the word
of love not war

If i could fly to
places bleak
i'd offer solice to
all i meet

    IF
  ONLY
    I
  COULD
    FLY...

    Enchanting! I love this poem filled with wonderful imagination. Very fine, dear poet. Yes, if we could fly! That's why I like fairy poems because I like to believe it.
