A Daily Superhero

You don't need to be a superhero from the movies to help others.

————

For as long as I can remember, I wanted to fly.

Not in an airplane, but like a superhero.

I would fly facedown like a beautiful butterfly. 

Floating above the power lines so I’d not be aglow.

I’d glide gracefully like a delightful dragonfly.

People might ponder; is she friend or foe?

Coasting along the air currents as they intensify. 

No one would be frightened of my spectacular show.

If someone was in trouble, I’d respond to the outcry. 

I would not hesitate; I’d just get-up-and-go. 

But like other humans, this talent did not apply.

However, I could still help others to prosper and grow. 

I can be a daily superhero who’s not in the public eye.
