To Touch the Sky

by Amanda Van Lanen

Come back down little girl

You don't belong up there

Too many things to bruise your skin

Little girl beware

Of chasing stars of riding clouds

Of soaring on the breeze

You neverknow when the wind might die

And drop you to your knees

Little girl get down from there

You're flying way too high

Look back down upon the ground

Before you hurt you eyes

Ask me not to join you

I like it where I am

I know the grass I know the hills

I'm safe within my pen

If I never leave I'll never fall

If I never laugh I'll never cry

Yes, but ifyou never change you'll never grow

If you never risk you'll never fly
