"Don't walk in front of me. I may not follow. Don't walk behind me. I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend."


Poem Artwork

Don't try to control me
I'll just go away
Don't smother me please
For I'll never stay

Free spirit am I who
Free just to be me
Happy alone 'til
I reach out to thee

A candle whose light shines
Unless covered tight
Extinguishing flame
Make darker the night



Jane Noponen Perinacci, free spirit

Jane, I don't think any of us want to be controlled
by another...we all wish to be free in our own right!
You poetry is coming along nicely.

Always,

Deborah

Sounds like Bonnie Raite at her best:
Lay down with me;
Tell me no lies.
Just hold me close;
Don't patronize.

I gotta be me
I gotta be free
I am who I am
That's my decree.

It's such a wonderful feeling to be free from all the clutter that ties most folks down.

Your poem expresses the exuberance you feel as though you can fly, now that your wings are no longer tied.

Always be the "free spirit" that is your self, Jane. I love the self-reflection shared through your verses. I also know that you would probably now have liked to have written "whose" in this verse: A candle who's light shines. My brother, who is a fine writer, always has trouble remembering to double check those contractions. Lol! Love and best wishes to you, Jane.

One has to be a free spirit and not be controlled.

She Intrigues Me, Revelations Of Love by Jon Willey

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
