Freedom

Neville

 

Freedom

After sharing the last

French cigarette

My lady turned her face away

And said

 

We are free as two wild flowers

Tomorrow

We will still be free

Free enough to forget each others name

                Just words - that's all that poetry is - but it's the way that you assemble them that makes a real poet - super little piece.l

                • Neville

                  yes, of course... thank you kindly Michael

                  That takes me back to the times that I used to have the occasional Disque Bleu.

                  • Neville

                    they were kinda exotic back in the day weren't they.. thank you sir...... Neville
