GOSSAMER AND STEEL

my wings are made of gossamer and lace

as delicate as a spider's web

and strong as steel

they are made of clouds

that carry rainbows

and thunder

and revitalizing rain

my wings take me

to unknown places

wherein i remain

to secret places

filled with pain

to sacred spaces

bearing no stain

i will share my wings

with those who have none

i will bear them up

i will share my wings

so they too will

stand up

leap up

rise up

rebel

revolt

roar

and they will SOAR !
