Analysis of Freedom - To Be



Panted-for freedom,
as the deer - for water brooks,
deep cherished freedom,
words fail to convey,
noone takes away.
Freedom on wings of Love,
not suspended, bound,
but infinite, grand.
It will carry you through
layers of fleshly stagnation,
into a river of Life -
where body and mind bathe,
to emerge and stand still
before the Divine.
