" THREE TO FLY...."

" THREE TO FLY...."

Bending low, gaining speed
Of the ramp, through the air
Those below, taking heed
Hitting snow, feelings rare
                Through the air ~ free of care....

Helmet on, green light flash
Into space, bird without wings
Piercing clouds, ripping cord
Calm exhilaration brings,
                 Through the air ~ free of care...

Across the roof, on the edge
Windy day, looking down
Trees below, on the edge
Decisions made, reach for ground
                  Through the air ~ free of care...

Tony Taylor.   (Chicago)
