Because I Fly, I envy no man on earth

Because I fly
I laugh more than other men,
I look up and see more than they
I know how the clouds feel
What it's like to have the blue in my lap
to look down on birds
to feel freedom in a thing called the stick
who but I can slice between God's billowed legs
and feel then laugh and crash with His step
Who else has seen the unclimbed peaks
The rainbow's secret
The real reason birds sing
Because I Fly, I envy no man on earth
