Spreading your wings



Sometimes trying new things can be so scary.
We get at get anxious, and leary.
Isn't just little kids that get scared.
Adults are prone to it also.
We are all like baby birds.
Need that little push to seek our rewards.
The sky's the limit do they say.
Sometimes though it doesn't work out that way.
Not always does our dreams come true.
Things get messy, but askew.
Nothing wrong with starting late.It pays off in the end.
Just remember wings can always mend.
So spread your wings  and soar for the sky.
Life's too short not to try.
Enjoy every moment you have here on earth.
Cause in the end we will all be just dirt.
