And I wonder,
If the seas,
Ever wish,
They could be me,
Free to wander,
Farther than the shore,
Unattached to the moon,
And it’s pull at dusk,
And I wonder,
If the moon at times,
Gazed at me in awe,
Dreaming up
a life
Without binds to the sun,
Free to live and shine,
Without needing a source.
And I wonder,
If the women across,
Sullen eyed,
With faces white,
Ever wonder,
What life would be like
Without a child to cater for,
Free to live and travel,
At the whim of desire.
And I wonder,
If the slates were cleaned,
And the freedom was of my choice,
Would I choose to be bound,
To be needed and need,
Would I choose my life
Or theirs..

Thank you very much Colin.. I thibk I write the first verse a few nights ago, dumped it, and then decided to pick it up and complete. Now I am glad I did. 🙂

So am I glad that you did! Perhaps there is an analogy of life in those circumstances? Don’t abandon anything too readily, but rather keep it for review at a later time when things may be different! 🙂

Ameena, absolutely beautiful write, my friend. My take is that true freedom is only found within the confines of boundaries. Without those boundaries, this fallen race, called humanity, would cause utter chaos and anarchy.
Just my two cents worth.
Please have a lovely weekend.

I couldn’t agree more. We need to know that there are limits, I also would not like to imagine a life without. Thank you Stacy for sharing your thoughts on this. Have a lovely week ahead.
