Sparrow or eagle I envy them all Majestic, regal They piercingly call Or chirp joyfully As they flit through the air I’ve dreamt that was me Set free from my care The dreams of a boy To be one with the wind Like a favourite toy The dream has not dimmed Yet here I remain My head rules my heart Amidst all my pain This life is my part The burdens of life Bind me to this earth The truth, like a knife Kills my dream at its birth What we cannot see We can still believe Force reason to flee Enjoy being naive |

To have the dream of freedom, yet be stuck in our rut of life, our path which seems not to change. We all dream of the freedom my friend and finding our way to happiness. I totally enjoyed the read, welcome to PIP, great place here with wonderful people. Rick |
