Freedom

Celebrating 50 years of living with a 'freedom ride' into England and Scotland

Freedom

7/4/09

Where lays the attraction

for the concept portrayed

behind this overused word,

both negative and positive,

some people hear 'chaos',

'anarchy', that anything goes,

others relate to sovereignty,

power, choosing self determination,

also there's wild abandon

no sense of restriction

being like an animal

following one's pure instinct

letting life unfold accordingly

fiercely unafraid of results

only knowing energy surge

headlong pursuit in direction

toward essential creative stimulation

spurred by hungry desire

or release of confinement,

any domination by others

who restrict our abilities

to play, enjoy life,

be inspired by miracle,

this diverse teeming existence,

while embodying our omnipotence,

connected to all Creation

and it's inherent freedom.
