For No Crime

For no crime, I was sentenced To four years Repository of knowledge, With hard labor Five years of sentenced served, I peeped into morrow, Hoping to be free Like the caged bird, But it seemed today Would never come!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Your day is coming, we all live in cages and only One has the key to let one out

Thanks Stephan. The Poem was actually celebrating an undergraduate who just graduated, despite all odds
