Crowed

Crowed. 



when we sleep we breathe so freely because our eyes are closed; 


strangers try to see right through me but my eyes show them exposed; 


a wooden ship guides me nearly but the compass it told; 


a mind can think so very clearly but emotion overflowed; 


remembering life was so very easy when your mind was controlled; 


all alone isn't bright and breezy in the dark forest lost and very cold; 


I see a blurred light to always greet me as I awake to the bird as it gently crowed.

Good day Peter, hummm. i find this one very clever... I think the first one is my favorite and a little creepy... cuz, if i sit and think about it... ---I wish to feel that freely feeling forever.. ALWAYS... but closing my eyes forever sounds permanent ... anyways.. I super enjoyed.. each line... Linda
