This poem talks about learning to fly solo, but it isn’t really referring to learning to fly an airplane. It is about growing up, coming of age, soaring into the future, spreading wings and taking flight into life.
Under watchful instruction
I’ve learned many things
Now I am longing to soar
I’m sprouting dreams and wings
First I learned the simple things
And then things more complex
I studied hard each lesson
Always eager for the next
My hands had to get the feel
Of being in control
With aid close by if needed
To help me reach my goal
I learned that before flying
You must take time and care
To make sure all’s in order
Before taking to the air
Then came that special moment
The time to fly solo
I had studied and prepared
It was now time to go
And so I sped to lift off
Took flight to destiny
Flying solo into life
Soaring high, feeling free.
