Who Gave Them Wings Who gave them wings? Oh God, was it "I"? It now seems as if they've learned how to fly. They once were so small and all through the day, "I love you Mommy", was what they would say. Then off they did go to school where they learned. They learned how to read and how to take turns. Each one grew up fast as I taught about life. And yes, they grew wings and learned how to fly. I look at them now. They've so much to give. Each one unique with much life to live. I pray as they leave my nest, in their flight, their wings will be strong as they fly out of sight. Author Debra Hall © A Heart of Gratitude August * 2000
