I Believe I Can Fly

They believe…be sensible

prepare now

save for the future

work hard while young

enjoy when old

no pain no gain

They believe…compromise

follow the crowd

stay within the lines

keep your head clear

keep your eyes straight

ahead

feet on the ground

What about now! what about roses? what about stars?

what about chasing rainbows, floating clouds, butterflies…

what about silver linings, serendipity, spontaneity…

what about moonbeams, sun-rays, raindrops?

I believe….

I believe I can cut my own pathway

I believe I can step off the edge and not fall

I believe I can close my eyes and follow my heart and soul

I believe I can walk in the rain and not get wet

I believe in today and have hope for tomorrow

I believe in dreams, I believe in me….

I believe I can fly!
