Eagles
The strongest of birds
Learn through pain
It's the type of parenting
That makes their children learn
What fear is
So they can conquer it
And that's what parents do
They don't hide their children from
Evil, malis, and struggle
They expose it
Then help them through it
The eagles bring their chicks to enormous heights
The chicks
who have only been in the world for a few days
Unable to fly
Yet
And as great eagles bring the chicks up to the sky
They drop them
Yes
You heard me right
They drop them
Until they learn how to fly
It's a struggle
The babies are face to face with death
Until their mother
With love
Swoops down to catch them
Only to drop them again
And again
And again
Until
Those tiny wings
Can soar
