Fly On

Can’t you see

this magic of happiness that exudes out of me?

Where does it come from?

How could this be?

Can strength be found in my leaves?

for they are quite steardy

gently tossed to and fro

like a dancer in the tradewinds

a graceful hula show

Or maybe it’s strength found in my stem?

reaching heights 6 feet or 10

Or could it be strength when faced towards the East

in greeting the sun

whose warmth is released

A feeling of exuberance

nurturing light high in the sky

I know where happiness comes from now

It’s found within

I’m ready to fly
