Let Me Be

"let me be"

just as birds
I will fly
let me be

eagle high
I will soar
let me be

peace within
I am free
let me be

Sometimes that is what we need. Peace and quiet, no questions, no duties, no reasons, no requests, just silence. Your poem says a lot in such a small frame. Sounds like it is time to find a nice tree to sit under and watch the day pass...quietly. : ) Well done my friend.

PS Martin. I am a big believer in souls and of freedom and the feeling of freedom and will write of this from time to time. I just wanted to explain with the hope that you believe me when I say I do not know of the song and title you mention. Yes, I live under a rock as they say. (smile) Thank you.

Hello Martin. Thank you very much for sharing your commentary with me. I live under a rock and have been blinded with life that I do not know of the song or title. I will have to look it up. I give you my word I did not copy anything. This is just what came to my mind earlier this morning and the format is mine too. I do however appreciate and like the one and only Jimi Hendrix. My message to all including myself is my we all fly soar and just be. May we have peace. Thank you once again. Have a wonderful day and weekend. Enjoy poetry and poetry soup as well. (smile)
