(My daughter Katelyn drew the picture for this)
In her comfortable nest the eaglet clings
But her whole life purpose is to use her wings
Outside the nest there remains so much more
Her true calling is to step out and soar
There's new freedom and life to embrace
Ascending upward to a higher place
To rise in the clouds and experience lift
To operate in each God given gift
The mother eagle hovers over the nest
One may assume she does not want the best
The mother appears that she is being rude
Withholding from that eaglet it's daily food
But the mother will not let the eaglet die
It is her way to get the eaglet to fly
To fly the eaglet makes her tough decision
She spreads her wings and has new found vision
As that young eaglet begins to take flight
She rises and encounters each new height
With her broad wings she will not be falling
She now knows her incredible calling
We were not created to stay in our nest
A safe comfort zone is not always best
Our short lives have so much more potential
But departing the nest is essential
As the eaglet soars, the nest she will not miss
For the eaglet's called for such a time as this
As this young bird has found her eagles wings
I'm sure deep inside her joyful heart sings
