FREEDOM? As a newborn sparrow Spreads its wings to fly From captive nest To open sky... Slamming to earth, Distraught go I. -Robert E. Michaud Jr.- |

OUCH! this is indeed the price of freedom. Robert though concise that poem hit hard. an interesting take on the challenge. Well done. "but for the lovers, their arms Round the griefs of the ages, Who pay no praise or wages Nor heed my craft or art" Dylan Thomas. |
