An Elliptical Path - Miz Q 22: Earth Day


Earth Day

An Elliptical Path

The birds who have wings - do it
One at a time or in flocks - they do it
Each with their own feathers - they fly

Man together with many men - do it
Mostly in groups, some in troops - they do it
Often with only one fabricated pair - they fly

Off the ground, dreams take flight, oft encouraged - do it
Businesses expanding boundaries, selling their wares - they do it
Some crash land, while others - they fly

I watch you rise early, before the birds to catch a flight, in a mechanical
beast...deployed, employed - to save earned nickels and dimes so
maybe in our golden years, we too will be able to freely fly...

The birds have been our guides, bringing dreams of flight to reality
We all enjoy that sky view of the land and oceans blue
Seeking that distance -  but always returning to, our Mother; Earth.

Protect - do it!
Display, respect, save - can we do it?
The planet we share - in its’ flight...
