The Cage  Pic by AsSoul8197 I was caged, fearful and sad till My heart stirred at the free bird's will To ride the wind and claim the sky; I must break out of my bastille. Just like the bird that flies so high The one that trills a joyful cry As it soars and dives in the sun; Amongst the clouds I long to fly! To roam the world, to have such fun! To seek the Plains where bison run! To dance a ballet in the air! To do all that I have not done! It's good to dream but would I dare To cast aside without a care The fears inside that brought despair? Dare I get up from my wheelchair? Lee Inspired by Maya Angelou’s "I know why the caged bird sings" posted by Poet_Dancer. Live today as if it is your last For tomorrow will soon be in the past |
