He had wings that
gave him flight.
The sun was
beautiful and bright.
It melted into the ocean.
But there is danger in
flying too low as well,
just ask the mermaids in
the depths of hell.
The seawater screws
up the lift.
Fly to safety and
peace,
not the
fantastical or
far-fetched.
You don't need to
have it all.
Beware of
too
much
ambition.
