I Am A Free Spirit

by Poetic Ninja aka Papachopchop   Jan 29, 2008


I am a free spirit,
Nothing can hold me down,
People get intimidated by me,
Whenever I am around.

I am the mustang,
That roams the open field,
My inner fire burns,
And will only continue to build.

I am the cougar,
That runs free through the plains,
With the wind in my face,
Through sunshine and rain.

I am the grey wolf,
Loyal to my pack,
If you mess with my friends,
I will mercilessly attack.

I am the child,
With innocence I view life,
Sometimes too naive,
To view all of it's strifes.

I am the butterfly,
I go wherever I wish to roam,
With the freedom of the world,
I can call any place my home.

I am a free spirit,
I'll go and do what I please,
This world will never again,
Get me down on my knees.

    I adore the confidence in this poem. Lines like

    "I am the mustang"

    really painted a picture in my mind and it made me as a reader more confident which is what you want as an author. This is really a great display of what words can do for you.

    I'd love to hear more about the inspiration for this poem.

    Another beautiful poem. This poem itself has so much power, strength and emotions in it. I am actually at a lost for words. You really do have a very special talent and I hope that you continue to use it. The imagery again was perfect and so was the flow. Great Job! You are on your way to the top.

    I like these lines da most. full of bitterness though...

    "I am a free spirit,
    I'll go and do what I please,
    This world will never again,
    Get me down on my knees. "

    Keep up the good work...
