Shy Me

SHY ME I long to be free From cages in me That hold me tightly Can't try to pretend To be unfettered I long to love Sweet mourning doves Playful coo blissed To open heart’s kiss I long cause I'm alone And have pause To be Freely Me January 8, 2021 A Diminished Hexaverse Contest Poetry Contest Sponsored by Caren Krutsinger

It's nice to meet you Lonna, and I know how you feel. I think as poets, a lot of us can relate to being shy, I know I can! Where I avoid FB for the most part, I find I can relate to other poets on Poetry Soup :)
