Words in Motion 2014- Feature Poem of the Day for National Poetry Month

Longings


Oh small bird
no debts to pay
Go where you want
Come when you may
Eat when you’re hungry
Fly as you please
Would that I could be so at ease.

Each year you fly south
With the strength of your heart
I’ve a will of my own
But we’re worlds apart...


Trade for a while
And let me be free
To fly in the wind
And rest in those trees...

Would that I could be so at ease.
