[First Day of Flying by Shelly S. Cannady
-from Google]
Wild Woman
knows more
than any
mother
wants to
ever
have to
learn,
about watching
her child
teeter
on the edge
of the
precipice,
fearful
that the
slightest breeze
will topple
him off.
But she also
has experienced
more joy
and pride
than any
mother
could ever
have
imagined,
at watching
her fledgling
step courageously
to the edge,
spread his wings-
and fly!!
