This is a response to Poppy’s prompt, Fly, and Kenny Penn’s Haikuplet challenge. Do join in the fun!

Chasing dreams is an uphill battle. That’s probably why many of us don’t end up doing that.

Seeing them come to fruition, however, takes the willingness to try and good, old-fashioned diligence.

May we all be eagles willing to take that first step to wish upon that star and make our dreams take flight.

Splendour stands bravely

Wings unfurl in readiness

Creature takes flight

Bird soars the blue skies

yellow beak touches white clouds

Breaks through to the sun.
