Free verse - A Spirit Free
If
I became a spirit free
I'd float
On a warm desert breeze
Or
Ride on the crest
Of the mightiest wave and see
The seven sea's
I'd tumble
Like a trickling stream
Over
Rocky waterfalls
And
Drop like angels tears of joy
In the deep
And
Misty pools
I'd
Like to float so way up high
And
Watch the earth
Where
Eagles fly
Or ride
On the back of a wandering breeze
Where
Wild horses roam
And
Join them in their gallop
On their
Wild prairie home
I'd fall like rain
So soft and sweet
On lands so parched and dry
Then play
In the glow at the rainbows end
There
Shinning in the sky
I'd
Gently cling to a butterfly's wing
As it
Slowly flutters by
Over fragrant meadows soft and green
Together
There we'd fly
All these things I'd like to be
Should
I become a spirit free
'Till then I'll carry on my way and wait
For destiny.
