Little I, free as

Birth, sands 'neath my being, as I,

Yearn an ocean's girth....

a crackling-white vestibule

 Cacophony of rage; hatchling is gone.
Mockingbird awaits its prey;
Cat may have a sore rear!...

A week old hatchling
The mother lark feeds with love
White clouds come above
Sudden tempest ruins all
Solar eclipse in lark town

Hatchling
gold daffodils
the call of the cuckoo
conies sparring before sunrise 
Soon realize the delights of rainfall
tumbling from branches to wildlife 
learning their craft quickly 
toad spawn spring bloom
hatchling

Like a hatchling from chrysalis,
I'm letting go.
I'm hoping you fly
So I can wish you a fall
great miles away from I.
Until I am worthy;
Love, I accept you free

I have not been the companion.
You, with all efforts to own
No, not love!
Like a prize to be won,
diamonds to possession,
No, not love!
And I never understood it then,
Colossal mull over on
Why I'm still trying!
So, until I deserve you back with me
Love, I set you free....
