Flight Of The Thunderbird

Was so scared when you pushed me out of the nest.
Had never flown before but mother you knew best.
Looking below I wondered if I could pass the test.
If I didn't make it at-least I would get some rest.

Frozen in vertigo it couldn't had been another way.
Just an egret but I felt like an eagle that day.
My wings took to the wind; I knew it would be OK.
Soaring through the sky; Just an eagle at play.

My fears relieved and I knew I could fly the skies.
I didn't need intellect and I didn't need alibis.
There were no second chances or any fee-bled tries.
Just the flock of eagles and our screeched cries.

The sky was alive and the wind was my true friend.
What I thought was the end was just a new begin.
I flew higher than the nest and my next of kin.
My world was small when I think of it back then.

Many fears I have overcame and all have stirred.
Many tests I have passed and many have endured.
Many flights I have taken and some off world.
Will always remember becoming that thunder bird.
