Soaring

How majestic in outline
against the blue sky
as the Wind lifts them up
where they belong

climbing and gliding
between the clouds
they cross golden wheat fields
waving below

comparisons pale when
try as I might
to find decent metaphors
each one disappears in flight

perhaps the soaring sound
of a Mozart clarinet concerto
can reach such height
as the wings of an eagle in flight

How would you improve this?
