In a world of constant struggles,
many people would agree,
like a feather when it’s falling,
life is priceless when it’s free.

When the search for something bigger
goes beyond what you can see,
like a feather when it’s falling,
faith is deeper when it’s free.

Gripped too tight, a love grows weary,
and it yearns for liberty.
Like a feather when it’s falling,
love is precious when it’s free.

    Poetry

    For me, there's no more rewarding form of writing than poetry.  I love creating characters and storylines, but the challenge of painting a landscape in a smaller setting of words puts me in closer touch with where I've come from and who I am.  While not always positive or flattering, the poems define the person beneath the mask.  The earlier dated posts on this page are incorporated from two previous websites.
