Notes About The Poem

Third place on a contest.


 

 

 

Born Free


     Born in Earth now without any baggage.
     Enjoyed childhood in carefree attitude.
     Drove car of life out of parent’s garage
     as youth sang on high pitch in interlude.

     Started to pick either pebbles or gems.
     Born in Earth now without any baggage.
     Sometimes achieved fame, sometimes put in blame.
     All are collected, protected in package.

      Tasted bitterness, relished beverage
      Accessed success, experienced defeat.
       Born in Earth now without any baggage
       Love stored in my trove, also took deceit.

       In last phase duties are completed too.
       Then to release emotional bondage.
       After crossing death point, me ready to
       born in Earth again without any baggage.
