"One Day I'll Fly Away" Photography by Hayley Richards

Come join us!
Some birds are poets and sing
all summer. ~Henry David
Once my words were caged
Strangled by silence
Like a shy child
They lingered close
In quiet spaces
Whispering in my ear
where no one else would hear
But with time they grew
And so did I
Old cages get rusty
but old birds still fly
now the silence is stifled by words
they reach far places
like migrating birds.
