Unleash It From Its Cage Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

That variety of life that you are,
Unleash it from its cage.

Those expectations unsatisfied,
By restricting limits!
Why do people invite...
A lesser appetite of life.

The abundance that Mother Nature has shown,
To be known as a given.
Is under utilized.
Why do those prefer to hide...
Following with a focused-ness,
Fixed upon another's...
Footsteps,
That may or may not appear to glide.

From shadows come out,
To be whoever you are.
If you've decided to shine in light...
Why are you still in rehearsal?
Pacing back and forth as if...
You are afraid of the audience.

They have no clue,
As to which lines learned belong to you.

That variety of life that you are,
Unleash it from its cage.
Turn and read a new chapter.
Those you have already read...
Need not your current routine to relive them.
