Time To Fly. Poem by Alistair Plint

Time To Fly.



My child; it's time to fly    
[Use those    
fairy-wings    
they've served you    
well]
Wish on Rainbows    
look for flowers    
find excitement    
in the eyes of other's    
Don't search for love    
Don't deny him    
if it finds you    
     
Yes the song is right    
"wear sunscreen"    
But also eat ice cream    
     
When other's walk    
choose to run    
But stop, sometimes    
and listen to your heart    
Work hard, but it's not everything    
above all laugh    
Laugh like everything is    
hilarious    
     
Don't stop dancing    
     
Take your body seriously    
trust your gut    
and when you fall    
please stand up    
     
Take your time    
to think things through    
Keep your manners    
there    
where you can find them to    
     
Donate some time    
to something good    
Avoid hand-outs    
they can hurt you    
     
Dream, Big Dreams    
follow them      
Don't give up    
Hold passions dear    
keep up with them    
     
Feed the spirit and your own    
Build belief    
on knowledge      
you own    
 
Spend your time on  
the people  
you find rare  
Let them care  
     
Keep this note    
in your pocket    
Read it    
 when, you need it    
Above all
 
"I love you"
