Setting Free

Setting Free

A Poem by Amen_Poppies
"

Life in 7 stanzas...

"
Bring me into this world
so I can leave this warm embrace
and see my mother's face
- set me free -

Give me strength so I can walk
so I can learn and grow
like the chic-a-dee babies in my new window
- set me free -

Hold me tight and give me faith
take away my "owies" and tears
so I can frolic as a child, year upon year
- set me free -

Let me free, into the world
so I can pave my own destiny while opening my eyes
and mom can have some peace of mind
- set me free -

Life is grand, it's just begun
time's getting away from me as the sun breaks dawn
wish time could just take a breather, maybe yawn?

I now have children and grandchildre on my own
gave them lives and futures
kept them safe and warm
- and set them free -

Life is a miracle
and while it may be hard, it's full of wonder
I've lived mine, one I don't ponder
- set me soul free -
so it can live on for me...

In my experience the things I write mean different things to different people. When I feel inspired to write, it all comes out really fast. It's like a train of thought. It's really personal. I think .. more..

Writing
