After Reading Jonathan Livingston Seagull

Who has not dreamed
of flight?
not with the aid of machine
and contrivance
but soaring winged man
above the clouds.

Thus did those dead
create
a heaven where the resurrected
fly
and angels clad in white
bring to eternity
our souls and give them
movement

(I'm dating some of these in my own defense. Bear in mind I was born in 1982...or maybe 1983...and make allowances)
