I am free
this autumn
evening to
embrace
the essence
of me

I am free
to dance among
cool enchanted
breezes and gaze
up at a moonlit
sky

I am free
to sing a song
I, lovingly,
composed

I am free
to stand strong
for all to take
notice

I am free
to rejoice
in the beautiful
life God,
graciously,
gave me

This autumn
evening
my soul
has been
reborn
and I am
free
