The words are wild stallions
Penned inside the mind
All in a state of eagerness
Waiting, and biding their time

Oh, to be free under the sun
To roam the green grass fields
I cannot begin to express
How much their wildness heals

The wind through the hair
As you soar across the plain
Freedom is a real, tangible thing
In this way shall not be tamed

Liberate me, set the words to run
Let them over you, cascade
Set on fire as immortal as the sand
To burn, rather than fade

you already seem liberated by those words

Thank you all so much.

I will hope to write more and in the mean time, will continue to read as much as I can, if not reply as much as I'd like to.

I am a recently reformed refugee--and as I told a friend here at Pip, there IS a difference between a refugee and an evacuee--RESERVATIONS.

And I have no reservation regarding your welcome, so hugs, fellow gypsy.
