"High Flight" by Don Macdonald was commissioned with the generous personal support of Marni Johnson and Gordon Roberts.
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings
Sunward I've climbed
And joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds
And done a hundred things you have not dreamed of
Wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence
Hov'ring there
I've chased the shouting wind along,
And flung my eager craft
Through footless halls of air
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark nor ever eagle flew
And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space
Put out my hand and touched the face
Of God
