Freedom Poem by Nosheen Irfan
Freedom
Unbound by man-made chains
The bird flies whither its heart takes
Sailing through the air with poise
On the spreading wings of desire
It longs to hold the universe
In its fluttering feathery chest
Upwards, the sky blue and inviting
Below, the land grey and waiting
It keeps whirring through the wind
That hinders not its limitless flight
On a rushing wave of impulse
It lunges into the vast, open sky.

Wonderful - I love it. This is so much more than a poem about a bird. It is the essence of freedom. If you have time, read my poem A Tethered Bird and also Green Parrot. The theme is similar.
This is a wonderful evocation of fight and I was flying myself as I read it. Your poem gives us the experience of flight but lets us articulate what it means. I myself put the search for meaning on hold and just re-read the poem and felt perfectly fulfilled in the FANTASY of flight. This is the magic of poetry: a poem's imagery is the opening to another world in which we are free to bustle!
Just beautiful Nosheen......! ! . Like this bird, soar high into the realms of poesy on view less wings!
Sometimes all we need is to be free as a bird.. But that freedom has its own price.. Very few amongst us dare to pay that.. A beautiful poem Nosheen.. Thank you.
