Susan Ellis Poet Rhyme

Where Freedom Finds the Fire

When one desires independence
With a yearning to be free
A fire burns within their soul
As they seek their liberty
The need to be free consumes them
Anxiously planning their escape
At any given time it could happen
With no time to hesitate
The hunger from within them
Enables courage from far beyond
Escape to gain ones freedom
Ignites a fire one must respond
