Eagle Eye
Personal memory by Miya
2002-2015 • Howard County, MD, USA
I've always loved looking up into the sky. It's never the same, it feels surreal. I could spend the whole day watching the clouds, or trying to figure out the names of the birds soaring through the wind. If I could fly I would want to be as majestic as a Bald Eagle. Seeing one would always be th highlight of my day. Me and my sister could spot them from a mile away. As time went on, they became harder and harder to find. We went from seeing one a day to wondering if they would ever fly this way.
