The Dream of Flying.

I dreamt I was an eagle,
In the heart of my country, America
Flying,
Gracefully.



I dreamt I was an albatross
In the light of the dying sun
Soaring,
Endlessly.

    yay!! i read it...i'm not overly fond of eagles, they fly above our school grounds and snatch samosas (pkistani eating thingy) from your hands! talk about nerve! but the fact is that they are very fearless, extraordinarily great hunters.....

      I know what samosas are I've eaten quite a few of them myself

      I tried to think of a bird that would fly with honor

      They steal samosas? Oh my gosh! That's crazy! They actually steal them from your hands? *laughs* They're almost extinct in America

    wow! this is wonderfully penned. Birds. i love birds. i love the feeling of freedom you get in reading these.

    in the frist stanza, perhaps you could be a bit more precise. Which bird...even though it is not wrong , you specified the brid in the second one so it would only fit to out it in the first one.

    In the light of the dying sun...

    i am really impressed with this line, it has such a good tone, and flow....i loved this. This was pretty darn amazing!!

      Why, thank you very much ^^ I will find another bird that amazes me, other than the albatross, and I shall put it in there.

      Glad you liked it!♥
