Wings Of Wax

Let me borrow some fire and rage from time
As the shores resound the music of the chime

I will now decide to re-invent the wheel
To go back in time riding high on the keel

Tis a story of Destiny and a steely resolve's tryst
A rapturous affair of ephemeral might

Stemming from the need to resist all pain
Strong Yearning and restlessness awaited the swain

A star studded sky and some misty eyes
Witnessed the moment of glory's demise

Going through the routine of the grind
He beholds the panache of the glorious mind

Rising from the flames of the fuming volcano
Trying in vain to overcome the inferno

Flying high to reach the dizzying heights
Pushing the steely resolve to all its might

Climbing to the heat of the mighty sun
He rose again with vengeance and fun

The winds were strong and brazen with fury
Alas his wings were weak and weary

But Such was the euphoria of the flight
He flew high and ignored his plight

Pausing to scorn at the devious and relax
He defied all odds with his Wings of Wax
