A Far Away Land Called Within

Once we saved a white owl which we saw at a bird market.
It was a magnificent bird,
which did not know how to fly.
It was tied to a horizontal pole. There was it’s home.
Over time we taught it how to fly.
And it did.
It now flies.

Deep within us,
we are all birds,
wanting to take to the skies,
to soar where we have never been,
but that we know exists.
We look at them,
and we think, such freedom,
not knowing,
that birds simply fly
for they know what their wings are for.
Wings,
we each have them.
But ours aren’t beside us.
They’re within us.
