Hatch and Fly Poem with Drawing

Poem Chick Was  I a seeker yearning yearning for God's friendship here on Earth?
Did I even dare to fathom what my life was really worth?
Aspiration realm indeed unconscious then You gave it a new birth
Hear that peeping inside the shell?
My soul is crying to be free
You're my only incubator trying to help me hatch and fly
I'm your ugly duckling swan chick with the will to try and try
