Life spark

A tiny spark cupped in my hands

Between my fingers glow

A little warmth it radiates

I want its life to grow

I hold it open to the world

With palms now stretching wide

It spins a great bit brighter now

And takes me for a ride

By its flames I hold on tight

And through the air we soar

The wild wind blows through my hair

And leaves me wanting more

Below, the earth boasts blues and greens

My eyes collect the sight

Amazing world I'd never know

If I had missed the flight
