Icarus take my hand Life is hard and happiness is fleeting So fly me to the calm of the safe zone Not too high, not too low, just out of danger
“Come then” said Icarus “together let us go, My father was too chary, there is no safe zone So let go my hand, free fall and soar Fracture fear’s white light into its myriad colours Fly blind, hurl your self to the rainbow’s edge Tame your thinking, banish misfortune Let feeling bank and change your course Risk love, risk trust, risk falling, risk soaring”
When Icarus took us flying into the heat of the sun He dived from height to earth Not a feather was torn, not one out of place “My quills are not fixed by wax They are attached by my mind” |
