Riders on the Storm

Gently pass on by, flying high, take me on your flight

An eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks.

While all the other birds hide in the leaves and branches of the trees, the eagle will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come.

When the severe weather hits, the eagle sets its wings so it can be picked up by the wind and be lifted above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle is soaring above it.

It utilizes the disruption to lift it higher.
