The flight

                                                              Juelich in 2009

Father came to help, downstairs
Slowly, making place
For the celebrations
Due to end, tonight;
Was it a dream, thought I
At day break, all quiet
Not even a whisper
But he was there, alright;
Do not be afraid
And do not despair
The voice repeated
I shall stay, if you will find;
The directions were simple
And the movements brave
Alas, the windings did not stop
Until, the foot of the flight.
