A Bird in the Sky

The earth is round
My life is bound
Forever to the ground

I envy the birds
Who fly in great herds
As they look down on us from above

The pigeons take flight
With great speed and might
Spying on us from incredible height

The hawks gracefully glide
With the speed of a tide
As they were on an air slide

The eagles fly up in the air
With wing strokes ever so fair
As they all just look down and stare

In the sky the crows soar
As they are followed by many more
Until they seem to be charging to war

So I ask, why cant i fly
The answer is simple
For I have no wings
