The webs that hang before my eyes
Are swept away at last.
My vision of tomorrow bright
Has pushed aside my past...

I've broken free from chains that bind
Discovered I have wings.
They'll take me anywhere I wish
To all the joy life brings!!

what a lovely, positive message

If I had my liberty I would do my liking.

Well I for one am glad you dug this one up.
You give a grand message of hope with very few words. Very well done.

BTW - The tourbus is always running - hasn't stopped for quite some time.
