MORNING FLIGHT
one of the first things I do -
is look out at the ocean –
and stand there – sometimes
it’s a long waiting – till
I see a bird - awake long
before me – flying above
the waves – searching for
its breakfast – and me –
I just have to grab a bowl –
some Cheerios and Raisin Bran –
and milk – and be eating in less
than a minute. I ask myself,
“Who has it better?”
Lucky bird.
I can’t fly – but I can look.
