From birds within the trees
I hear a distant melody
About the world and all it’s troubles
About life still undiscovered
From rustling of leaves
I hear a quiet questioning
Of the patterns in our nature
Set in order by our maker
If the sparrow takes to wing
If the winter leads to spring
If the earth can be aligned
With the sun and not be burned
If the creatures can be tamed
If the heavens can be named
I was made for better things
So unleash me from these chains
I was meant to fly away

I have reached for the stars and followed my dreams. It is a long way to fall, but I am glad to say I was not afraid to fly. Thank you 🙂
A real little gem of a poem. Quite delightful.
Thank you very much! Glad you stopped by!
loveley poem 🙂 quiet realistic, thanks
Thank you for the kind words
“Creatures can be tamed” “Heavens can be named” You have an unbelieveable talent for writing. I’m glad I’ve had the chance to visit your blog again. Also, if you haven’t already, I’d like to nominated you for the versatile blogger award.
Thank you very much. I must admit, I’m new to blogging and to WordPress so I am not familiar with how awards work on here but that is quite a compliment! I feel very honored 🙂
Beautiful…sounds like something that may have gone through the mind of Beethoven
That is a new compliment 🙂 I’ve never been told that, but to be placed in the intellectual company of such a brilliant composer is very flattering. Thank you!
Beethoven used to take long walks in the woods and it was one of the sources for his music…or so I have read.
A long walk in the woods sounds absolutely divine right now. I imagine it would generate more positive poetry 🙂 thanks!
We make our own chains, and they bind one so, it’s a relief to be loosed and let fly, … Lovely descriptive words… (One doth own a handy bolt cutter shouldst thy ever again hath need of one, ) xPenx
Ah some shakespearian 🙂 I used to write poetry that way actually, but it was so foreign to most people that I stopped. Thank you Pen!
Simply lovely.
You are very kind 🙂
Have been reading your poetry, really delightful…creative!
Thank you very much

Thank you very much! It’s good to see you back, my friend
