No More No more darkness will cloak my soul To freedom I soar alive and whole Shake these shackles from my wrist I’ll no longer squirm or twist Released from this place of night I’m walking into freedoms light Out from under the yolk of pain I’m off to dance in delight again No more words that pierce my heart Or sneers that rip my soul apart I’ll shake the dust from my shoes Freedom’s destiny I will choose Nothing to hold me bound here I leave behind sorrow’s fear Take one last look before I leave I’ve been given a total reprieve No more pain from sores of wear I’m walking away from dragon’s lair Take your chance to bid me adieu I’m leaving here at last I’m through The sky and freedom beckon me I’m saying hello to liberty Don’t try to detain me anymore Just watch me take off, see me soar Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

Soar with the eagles, Mushy, and look down upon the poor earthbound clods with your soft, clear, sharp eyes Welcome to freedom, dear. Ain't it GR8? Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Sorry this posted double, Marsha...but that just says that your poem must be twice as good... ~hugs from a goofy poet friend [This message has been edited by Madame Chipmunk (05-17-2002 01:16 PM).] |

Vim and vigor, fire and light look out everyone, she's back Rolling strong down the way Mushy's move, a swagger and sway Darling girl, this is a poem loaded with gun powder....ready to fire when the target is found.... |
