Free Bird

A bird,
free in the wind.
Wings flapping
to the soft beating,
of a drum.
A heartbeat.
Soaring the skies
independent in the wind.
No certain path,
going with the flow.
As the sun moves west,
the bird still flies,
knowing that one day,
its quest will be complete,
its task will finish.
And when that happens,
the bird
will still fly
free.
