Fly Birds, Fly

Fly birds, fly. Flap your wings in unison. Long strides gliding on each other's whispering breaths. Create whirlwinds so powerful as if blown from the lips of the almighty God. Like an army of ships departing into the vast void of mystery known as the sea. Malicious waves taller than sequoias will threaten our very lives, but we must fight. Alluring sirens with mesmerizing songs will draw each of us to the brink, yet we put faith in our inner strength to move forward in life. As Disney once put it, when you wish upon a star it makes no difference who you are. Believe and thou shall succeed. Get ready to skydive out of the dark tree hole we all know, into something greater known as the unknown. Tiring as it may seem now, it all pays off in the end. Muscles will build over muscles greater. We can only get stronger with time. Others around us may fall back to earth. Help those around you, keep them from descending, but never forget to pick your own self up again. Our flock will fly on to the Heavens and never cease to exist. Believe and thou shall succeed.
