LIVING FREESTYLE


Adoring thoughts focus on life freestyle …
scoring just one private fertile square mile.
Stockpile goods, fish and hunt wild game to store.
Worthwhile garden work brings fruits, greens and more.

Adjourn from life beneath false, greedy skies.
Upturn simple joys as soulfully wise.
Devise strong home and outbuilds by hand earned.
Rise daily filled with all freedom discerned.

Great advice, CayCay! A life that understands simplicity is not distracted from finding joy. A life that acknowledges simplicity sees things very clearly. Wonderful write! Best wishes for the contest! Sending your blessings and hugs.

The idea of living off the land, close to nature, like our ancestors, has appeal!

Someone wise once told me, actually recently, that the best way to keep breathing is , to live life freestyle, just go with the flow ~ i thought of that as I read the opening line here especially and the flow is just seamless as always. I am a bit intrigued to try this form, I see so many doing them. I also love the way youv written “ Rise daily filled with all freedom discerned” uplifting! Much needed. A fave for me ~ Pleasure reading you today Sending you light always 🌙 💫

Very interesting one. It's like a poem about survivalist lifestyle mixed with wisdom and spirituality. It's so fascinating to see what different poetry forms inspire us to write

A lovely celebration of self-reliance and the restorative freedom of a life close to the earth. The images of gardens, fishing, and an effort-earned home create a warm, hopeful vision of simple abundance.
