What is freedom?
Oh, what is freedom?
It is pure self 
embracing 
limitless potential.
It is joy dwelling
in a soaring bird 
in rise and fall,
in a wave undulating
in stable currents
after a stormy night,
in a summer breeze
flowing in and around, 
in a dormant seed 
opening
to reach and rise 
on blessings,
countless blessings,
into the unknown,
into all it offers the world
in infinite beauty,
free
to be a rainbow 
of all hues when,
at the end of a day,
blessings
showered by love,
counted and held,
find peace
in an awakening heart.
