I Am Flying

I am flying! I am flying!
I am riding on the breeze,
I am soaring over meadows,
I am sailing overseas.
I ascend above the cities
Where the people, small as ants,
Cannot sense the keen precision
Of my aerobatic dance.

I am flying! I am flying!
I am climbing unconfined,
I am swifter than the falcon,
And I leave the wind behind.
I am swooping, I am swirling
In (a) jubilant display,
I am brilliant as a comet
Blazing through the Milky Way.

I am flying! I am flying!
I am higher than the moon,
Still, I think I'd best be landing,
And it cannot be too soon.
For some nasty information
Has lit up my little brain
I am flying! I am flying!
But I fly without a plane.

I am flying! I am flying!
I am riding on the breeze,
I am soaring over meadows,
I am sailing overseas.
