Stretch Your Wings........


My dreams saved me.
Through them,
I escaped a trail of tears
and eluded the unyielding darkness
that had imprisoned me
in its icy clutch.
I let the wind carry me
on its shoulders
until I climbed above
the treetops,
and from up there,
I realized how
small and trivial
the obstacles below were.
And I found the sunshine
and inspiration
that had been missing
from my life.
Yes, my dreams saved me,
gave me purpose
so that I could soar
higher than I ever imagined--
all I had to do was
stretch my wings.
Have you stretched
your wings today?
