Deep in the heart

oh how wonderful
this breathing in of freedom
cleanest air of all
yet bought with a price so dear
remembering with each breath

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

Yes, indeed. Freedom always comes with a heavy price! Fruit must fall to the earth and die, in order that new generations of life can freely grow new blossoms to bear new fruit. And must not we all die to become totally free? As we rise freely in God, in eternity?

The price of the air we breathe, a unique look at freedom.

Well done and thank you.

So true. Yet I am frustrated with so many things that are happening in this "free" coutry. I know, not a popular opinion. Can't help it.
Love the poem though, and we do need to appreciate what good things we have in this country. And how many people have died for it.

I Love it!! As i said in another post, my dad was killed in a war when I was six. My entire family has paid the price

Dance like noone is watching
Sing like noone is listening
Love like you'll never be hurt
Live like its Heaven on earth

HUGS AND KISSES TO ALL!!!
