Rusty notes are swept away
by forceful morning sun ray,
No more crawling toward scarred fate,
Torment curls up to die,
I cannot wait
to stretch my wings and fly.
Wow. I'm swept away by the sheer power of your short piece :) Beautifully done...I would quote my favorite lines, but all of it is my favorite line. Thanks for dropping by. ~FireandIce
I loved this poem before I could even read it. The photo match is beautiful. The length is perfect, and your words are lovely. I especially adore bird poetry...I can't seem to stay away from it myself ^^; lukewater
This makes me think of a couple of dying lakes not far from her: Walker Lake in Hawthorne NV and Mono Lake in CA. There is such a sense of sadness and desolation when I drive by those areas, as there is in this poem. Yes, we wait for freedom.
