A New World

Songbird

The scratch of pencil on paper,

Words scrambling to escape her,

A story unfolding,

Her imagination molding,

Like a potter and a wheel,

Her eyes filled with zeal,

A whole new world at her fingertips,

As she chews her lips,

 

Mountains rise,

Birds fly,

And she joins them in the sky,

A smile fierce, free, and beautiful lights her face,

As she soars over oceans, mountains, and deserts with grace,

 

She sets the pencil down,

Her feet planted on the ground,

With a small smile still lighting her skin,

For she knows one day,

She will go back to the sky and stay.
