My thoughts once remained in obscurity
Until I decided that they should be free.
I opened the cage and they learned how to fly,
To glide on their wings as they soar through the sky.
They love to take flight, to look down from above,
Find peace and tranquility, freedom they love.
Some things that they see as they search and explore
Can only be seen from the heights as they soar.
They show me new places that I might have missed,
New words and new vistas to add to my list.
Sometimes I’m surprised what direction they lead,
The places they take me those thoughts that I’ve freed.
Once they’re set free and no longer inside,
The words can reach others there’s no need to hide.
