    Born to Fly

    2005

    Threads of words across the miles
    Dyed with tears and strung with smiles
    Ropes of friendship woven tight
    Bridge the gulf of day and night

    Splashes of smiles upon the page
    Brushed with youth and coloured with age
    Canvass of memories and imagination
    Reveal the art of co-creation

    Glitter of laughter sparkling bright
    Eases the dark and catches the light
    Circus of clowns who entertain
    Shine joy to lift the clouds of rain

    Feathers of touch against the skin
    Caress without and tickle within
    Flutter of wings across the sky
    Reminds us that we’re born to fly
