Loose Reins

by Jemma   Feb 5, 2007


Fighting the bit all the way
I have to tear away
Back to the hills
Where I should belong
I have to get away
And jump over those trees
And cross the streams
Those that have filled my imagination
As long as I can remember
Loose reins
One moment I’m free
The next being held
Helplessly
The dream is gone
But every time the reins give way
I can let my mind wander
To the home where I belong

    THANKyouthankyou....I never meant to use a capital I....I simply missed it...which, honestly, is unusual so....Once I saw it, it glared......Your instincts did not fail you, there was No hidden reason...chuckle....

    As for poetry.....I understand.....It is what it Is, they come as they come....the Voice of the Soul needs Attention.............and, of course, Guidance...;-)

    Peace,

    Yes, definitely effective imagery.....
    and....I got here to the hills...and here i have gratefully stayed 30 years!....I was in my early 30s......so......Keep Seeing It....This is a truly worthy ambition........could happen in this lifetime, even..;-)
