Heaven Poem by Daniel Parker

I sit alone, just gazing, above into the sky,
The sun gives out it's heat upon my face,
I look on in amazement as the birds carelessly fly,

Soaring high with beauty and with grace,

I sometimes do imagine, what life would come to be,

If I could be as careless as a bird,

The beauty of the feathers, the will to live so free,

To never have to speak a single word,



I long to soar without a thought, no worries, stress or pain

To taste the freedom I have solely missed,

No questions left to answer, no reasons to explain,

No wrongs in life that I must so resist,

Yet all these dreams, they fill me, but true they'll never come,

For I must keep my feet firm on the ground,

Heaven is not godly, its being free to some,

I guess that to the Earth I'm bound
