Before stiff frost of winter melted to spring dew, That was when I met you. Windy gusts of goosebumps to fill the air Making my arms stippled wings, Almost ready to fly. You wove me through the winds of those westward peaks. Through sugar dusted days, you were quickly woven in me. My life's fabric, newly adorned with the imprint of you- A colorful, bright adornment to a darker whole. The frost did melt, And the river began to flow, Your promising path was dealt. And while you sailed away, the rains came, dropping silently from blue eyes Slowly feeding the river. It wasn't until the last drop of rain fell That I noticed my wings Full of life, renewed in strength and vigor It was then I realized You were my catalyst For my own flight While others fastened anchors to me, Freedom was your gift And with gratitude The sea bird flies Hoping to reach the mouth of the river That carried you
