The Fear of Freedom

Mom, why do you have tears in your eyes? Why the darkness of clouds are on your face? Tell me, what's your worst fear? 'In your open fields and Mangrove Forests Enemies are attacking back' Is this your fear? Mama, this is your biggest fear! In your glory and beauty The perverts are trying to stain badly. 'To do assaults upon your chest All enemies are in the way' Is this your fear? Mama, this is your deepest fear! In your green forest and salt sea Enemies build camps and run through the around. 'They wanna chain you up' Is this your fear? Mama, this is your greatest fear! This is the fear of freedom! [amazon.com/author/lurepot]

A fear all too common I think. Along with fear of success. Very well thought out and constructed poem. May you only find joy and peace as we say goodbye to 2023 and welcome in 2024. Best regards David in NZ
