Fly If You Can (Coloboration Poem)

Fly said the Eagle, fly if you can

  Then pushed him right out of the nest

And he flapped and he flapped

As his little heart raced

He was out on his first major quest

*

He cried as he fell with the ground coming up

And he spread out his talons to slow

He flapped those wings hard

As he plummeted down
 
To the rising ground waiting below
 
*
 
A deafening tone looking back to the sky

A snare drum was rattling his chest

While feeling his heart,

drew his wings far apart,

giving chase in the ultimate test.
 
*
 
By a snap and a whoosh he was carving away

from the line that had drawn his demise.

With his head tilted back

saw a cloud to attack

past the smile within mother’s eyes.
