Freedom is Where We Find It

[couchgrouch]

Freedom is Where We Find ItThe pond is froze...light flakes are blowingher dreams have called and so she's goingshe'll soar away, sooner or laterice ponds are skies to figure skatersand freedom is where we find itfreedom is where we find itfor crimes long past he's still imprisonedthey think he's trapped but he isn'twhile he sits there quiet and idleit's paradise inside his Bibleand freedom is where we find iton the high plain or in our heartin rebel yells of renegadesor whispered prayers in the darkfreedom is where we find itnothing bottles the wind,there's nowhere it hasn't beenno willow where it doesn't belongwho can hold it back,it finds the smallest crackfeels open spaces and then is gonebut some feel safe as part of a systemwhen blowing wild shows faith and wisdomand where we're born won't lead us to itit knows no fence, we must pursue itcos freedom is where we find iton the high seas or in our heartin rebel yells of renegadesor whispered prayers in the darkfreedom is where we find it(c)2004 Robert George
