Why The Caged Tiger Paces I know why the caged tiger paces. I know why the captured lion doesn’t roar. I know why the tethered falcon screeches. The fire of freedom flows through the tiger’s veins. There should be no wall around the lion’s kingdom. The sky should have no tethers on the falcon. But, like me, The tiger, the lion and the falcon Live in a society filled with ignorance, greed and cruelty That respects no one else’s spirit. ã 2009 Bobbi Duffy

You are right, caged animals that are deprived of freedom don't pace and roar. Sadly...it applies to human beings as well... Sandie Angel :o(

A piece of reality that sadly chains and confines so many.... Be always safe, Karen

Such a great comparison and yes if our spirits could do what we really wanted not what society dictates I too wonder how wild our minds would be. Fee
