他们没有说太多话。波莉在整理她的羽毛。早晨的空气中弥漫着河水的气息。
“你要离开了,”托马斯说。
波莉歪了歪头。
他告诉她关于公园其他地方的事。高地有湖泊。北边还有另一个山谷。一片高大的树林。
“这个地方太大了,三天根本看不完,”他说,“你只能看到一部分。”
波莉想起她从悬崖上跳下的那些次。没有一次是完美的,但每一次都有一点进步。她可以用一生来不断进步。
绿色的接驳车回来了,还是同一个司机。托马斯站起来。“走吧,”他说。
波莉伸展了她的翅膀,从长椅上飞了起来。她绕着游客中心盘旋,然后开始攀升。
山谷在她身下渐渐远去。左边是酋长岩,右边是半圆顶。
在山脊上,她向西转去。她下方,一只游隼正在悬崖边捕猎小雨燕。波莉看着。然后她找到了风,让风带着她飞出了公园。
