Angel's Reach

A short story, much like "You Are Normal."

From above, you see a bird drop itself in pursuit of a small bug. You can only catch a glimpse of the creature, but you can see the graceful and determined acts of the bird. When it gets only inches from the ground, it flourishes it's wings out, leaving it horizontally, almost suspended in mid-air. Allowing itself to fall back into a more gentle dive. It swoops down and catches the bug in an instant. It lets off a small sound from the displaced air around it. All of this happening in a matter of seconds. You relax as you let go of a breath you didn't realize you were holding in. It pulls back, exposing it's white feathery stomach. Gracefully, it smooths it's flight back into a horizontal position, flying towards a massive city made of a strange crystal glass material that appears fragile but has obviously stood the test of time. You think to your self, "This... This is Angel's Reach."

Author's Note

Most of you may have my gender confused, (Except David.) and I was thinking, I kind of like that, I can act how ever I want. You won't yell at me for making a joke that may seem sexist. Just something I thought I might share with all of you.

He's one of my favorite poets. He was a great poet, very light. He liked to write of birds and angels too. ^^
You're welcome.

I'll look him up, and I'll let you know if I write anything like it again.
