I Might Just Fly Away

Arms stretched out all the way

Catch as much air as I can hold

Grasping at the wind

A steady, salty, sandy sea wind

Nearly strong enough to hold me up

If I fall back into it

Just misty enough that I can’t tell

I’m wet nearly through

Until I turn around

And feel the wind from the other side

Arms stretched out all the way

Hair whipping around in a frenzy

Eyes closed tight to feel it more closely

To feel that I might just fly away

If I took just a few steps running

If I leaped just a bit

With arms stretched out all the way

In this strong salty sea wet wind

It might pick me up and carry me away

Away over the rocks and the waves

And up over the morning fog

I might just fly away
