Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Puppet Free of Strings

the frailty of human nature
to wonder where this all can lead

truth best captured in the present
no place more perfect than its now

riding the coattails of fantasy
candied kisses in clear mint sky

longing in conjured dreamy state
ethereal in its summoned whimsy

scattered figments of imagination
there then gone they never happened
