National Poetry Day 2005

Recall By M. R. Parker

I wish I'd had to write a verse

or worse a diatribe, on why

I'd like to fly.

 

I envied birds, the way they flew

In the blue, the blue wide sky,

up, up they'd fly.

 

I said why can't I grow

wings to go above so high?

why can't I fly?

 

"Tis gravity and nature's laws;

no claws, no wings, no tail, no cause to cry;

they would reply."

and then I said "does god fly?"
