Learning to Fly Quotes

“Long you live and high you'll fly, and smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry, and all you touch and all you see, is all your life will ever be. ~ Pink Floyd”
― Michelle Leonard, Learning to Fly

“A baby bird cries out in the night It is hungry, naïve, and so helpless Wondering what has it done wrong The darkness seeps in as hope fades Where is its mother, is she in flight why has she left it alone for so long?   So the babe flutters its wings, But no one has taught it to fly Has it lost its ability to sing? It wants to live, needs to survive But it’s not sure it even wants to try It remains alone and out on the edge.   Finally it gathers up all its strength Flaps its tiny wings and tries to thrive       It falls to the ground…it is wounded The little one lies there waiting to die. Who will help it, and will it survive until the day when it learns how to fly?”
― Michelle Leonard, Learning to Fly
