Sometimes in life we learn no matter how much it hurts we need to let others fly free and nuture self.

BE FREE LITTLE BIRDIE


 


You came to me


With tattered wings


I nursed and coddled you


Now it is time for me


And I must set you FREE


 


I loved you a little more


Than I should have


Gave a little more


Than I should have


But that is my spirit


And that is just me


Now it is time for me


And I must set you FREE


 


My feelings were always


Considered last


Each time you were sorry


Each sorry cut deeper


Than the last


Now it is time for me


And I must set you FREE


 


You said you did not mean it


But I read your actions


In between the lines


Now it is time for me


And I must set you FREE


 


Its okay


I will be fine


Dont worry about me


Glad to see you're better


Now it is time for me


And I must set you FREE


 


Fly away little birdie


Fly away and be FREE


I will always wish you well


Now it is time for me


And I must set you FREE

Reading between the lines and feeling that in 'Letting Go' there was 'Growth'

The flow is wonderful!

Wow. Love is a motha-shut your mouth. I wish sometimes I could be let free, but then would I really be happy?

Thanks for the fantasy April.

Beautiful! Oh, it is so very hard to let go of those you love whether people or pets. However necessary or they will be smothered.....

Be safe,
Karen
