Freedom

Caring dove

Sadness sighs 

a sense of loss 

and disconnect 

sighing like a cloud with helpless tears 

 

later on I see three pigeons 

pretty pigeons 

friendly really 

sitting on the greens outside 

eating the berries 

being themselves 

being free ti be a bird 

free to be 

free to sit 

free to fly 

 

Today I felt a sense of loss 

a sense of being stuck 

divided 

sad for things 

 

yet those three pretty pigeons being themselves 

relaxing in the green 

eating berries 

are hopefully in a place where they wish 

or wanted to be 


i wish to feel always like me 

and feel free

        I always find that the natural environment helps for depression. I felt your sadness here. I love watching our avian friends. They are such a delight. A very visual poem Caring dove. Take care.

          Thankyou Cassie )) yes sometimes nature helps but I had been in a lot of the day and when I saw the birds ( even outside the window ) it helped a little .. in the moment atleast . We also have cats that come in the house , it’s nice to see them too . But when we feel sad we just want to feel happy , don’t we and just want to enjoy the day . Little things can help sometimes tho , yeah

              Are they free? Who knows. Nice one though.

              True freedom we all hanker after, but usually we are chained done by something, very enjoyed the read
