Freedom Begets Sacrifice

FREEDOM BEGETS SACRIFICE The pelican bird says; “even as I wound my peek’ To break the hardest wood’ To continue the lineage, I won’t get benefit here, but, lives good legacy, As I passed the agony as they suck me! So they can live.” The mother snake says; “even as the world detest me, I wouldn’t end my being anyway! But they tear me apart, as they visit the world, I know I would kiss the mother earth, But, all for the sake of love!” The mother human; the burdensome load, That she carries for months, Not minding the agony of birth, Or the pain the offspring cause thereafter, But she has to bear the pain, and free them, for the sake of love. But, for man to get indefinite freedom, Since there isn’t rest in life, She has to sacrifice the body, To free the soul, This is because, freedom, begets sacrifice.
