In a little over a week, we here in the U.S. we will celebrate Independence Day. Here's the challenge: Write a poem about freedom and post it in any forum you choose but the Holiday Cheer Forum is open now!!. It doesn't have to be about our country's fight for freedom. I can be about any kind of freedom! I look forward to reading them!  [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (edited 06-25-2000).] |

Here's a quick example: I am a child of the sixties we marched for civil rights we loved to chant about freedom never backed down from freedom fights. Now, I gaze out from my prison bars wondering why this was done to me Marching for what I believe is right chanting to allow men to be free. You can imprison my body but my mind is mine to control you can never bind my heart nor ever seize my soul. Freedom to love, to breath, to live freedom from other’s scorn freedom, not given, but just from being born. |
