A short some what sad poem. I was trying to make it hopeful at the end.


No More

A bird flies free

So why can't we

No pain or suffering?

No more crying, no more fears

No more bitterness or tears?

But think of what would be lost

If we didn't stop to care

No more laughter through the tears

No more conquering our fears?

A bird flies free

So why don't we?

We choose to care

The pain and suffering

The happiness and love

We take them as they come.


One of my teacher's son died recently and I wrote this for her. It's not one of my best poems because I didn't have long to work on it, but I hope you like it. To all of you who read this: Thanks and I hope you review. I may make it longer depending on my mood and the number of reviews or suggestions I get.
