Unfurl Your Wings Poem by Rani Turton

Unfurl your wings and fly
You can if only you would try
Let your mind free
Wander in total liberty
Shine like a multi-faceted gem
You can do it; show them.

Oft when we wonder and pause
It is just to complicate our cause
Let your mind free
Let it grow like a wild tree
Because thoughts, unlike branches
Should never be trimmed.
They should not be fettered
Never buried in trenches
Nor ever be dimmed
But like a fine vellum, lettered,
In gold, glow for ages ahead
When everyone else is dust and dead.
