Finding Freedom

Juliet Francis, S7 celebrates freedom as the spirit of choice and self-expression in this poem.

Freedom is the golden eagle soaring high, High above the sky of blue – a shining sign, Freedom is the walking people going by, Visions of their immense happiness to find.

Freedom is a prisoner, freed from being stuck, The ability to escape their caged time and live, Freedom is the right to be you, thank luck, To have a powerful motivational drive.

Freedom is the choice to be who you want, To be a filmmaker, debater, or nurse, Freedom is the ability to choose your life’s font, A chance to live a life that is diverse.

The world is your oyster, so conquer it! Be you, and know that you don’t have to fit!
