Lift

The bird soars high, above it all
  seeing the beauty of the river
Wending through the forest, caves,
  cliffs. All the things we see
From below, but separated by space.
  a birds eye view, captured
In the eye of the imagination like,
  like seeing the bird frozen in
Space on the stiff breeze, or watching
  it circle round and round.
Coming back and forth as if it can't
  get enough of the same space.
Content just to be there, and then
  dive, straight for the water.
Hurtling in daring for the food,
  then lift up and beyond.
Can you visit this space, through
  the eyes of a child?
