Free as a Bird

Thejaswini

 

I wish I was joyful and free
With open wings to favor my flee

Like a diamond dove in the wild
So strong, with a persona unrivaled

Eternally ceaseless, with a will unleashed 
Flying far and wide to the places I wished

Steering my wings between sunbeams & trees
Graceful and swift, so much at peace

I'd never look down unto trivials I hate
While I tread on like a bold eagle after bait

Gliding for long hours in the wind & drizzle
Those tiny raindrops on my feathers, they'd dazzle

Gazing in amazement at the multi-hued rainbow
I'd slither into panoramic hills capped with snow

I would unfurl amidst the ocean-sky unison
Swerving into the vastness of an absolute horizon

Smelling the scent of mellowed zephyr
Across a sprawling pinnacle, I'd aimlessly wander

Pretty skies transform from sapphire to golden
And the silvery clouds liberate me as a bullet from the gun

I sigh, I smile at nature's zest
Being thankful for a fleeting sight of night's best

How I wish I was free
Free as a Bird!

      Wow your imagery is very vivid and captivating. I can totally relate to this message as I always admire when birds would gracefully fly by just wishing to be as free as them. It seems so refreshing.

          Such imagery... Beautiful words full of a longing so many have felt. It is this that drives every drifter, wanderlust, a quest for freedom. Just once to have wings...

            Thank you so much, Smith... Yes it's a quest and longing for freedom - to just fly... 😊
