Free from thought
Free from time
Free from consequence
Free from crime
Free from circumstance
Free from fear
Free from sympathy
Free from cheer
Free from thoughts now
Free from strife
May as well be
Free from life

Good morning Helen, This is one of those poems where you think the conceit is to free one from issues that surround them but in fact it comes crashing down in the last line.
Thanks, it just started as a fun thing, then half way through I realised that if you r free from all stresses its kind of like being free from life, LOL! 🙂 🙂
It takes a whole lot of goings on to let you know you are living.(don’t know the alternative so I’ll take the goings on) nice ending.
Thank you!! 🙂 🙂
Tough price for ultimate freedom. 🙂 Perhaps we should strive to be only as free as we can without infringing upon the freedom of others.
Very wise, thanks!! 🙂 🙂
Great poem! I agree with you.
Thanks Elaine!! 🙂 🙂
