spreading his wings

For your care and thoughtfulness
I am very pleased in thankfulness.;

Not even my queen to be
Has thought as such of me;

To stay forever like this, man will not
But spread his wings to grow tall;

Higher and broader
The sun’s light to cover;

Until it is seen no more but him
In a time when man will look up to him;

Across the circumference of the earth
For their light on the dark but firm earth.
