Distant Dawn

Since, remembering yesterday's delight.
Not pushed but ever gently given shove.
Baby bird soared from the nest taking flight.
Eager to touch the azure sky above.

Perched on a hilltop to breathe in the view.
Perceiving the world through keen eagle eyes.
Bidding the guardians a fond adieu.
Little aviator flaps wings, then flies.

Longevity aims on survival skills,
Communing with landscape, naturally.
To appease hunger this bird of prey kills.
Just food for sustainance, never greedy.

Wish I could be grand like fowl of the air.
Free servant of God, in this world we share.
