Though I'm not an eagle
I'll soar above the mountains
If track trekking lanes become
Rough rocky hills
Causing locomotion in peristalsis
I will fly till I get to my destination
If success path adorns with storms
I will fly over the storms till I succeed
If sailing ocean bottom
Barricade vision,
To sky apex, I will fly
To conspicuously view cardinal points
If swimming through life hurdles is in slow motion
I will fly to gear its acceleration
In cobweb designed
Barren and stuffy zone
I will fly!
In search of breeding and breathing space
In idle gravitational pull to rest
I will fly to where I can be put to race
If all that wine and dine
On my leisure table are saboteurs
I will fly away to where
I can meet phenomenal ally
I will fly with momentary discomfort
Till I find my permanent heaven
Like an eagle
I will fly!
Till I perch on that iroko
Where rests my destiny
