Where Is Free?

A poem that explores places where my true inner freedom lies

Where Is Free? - A Poem by Sue Cartwright, Spiral Leaf


Where is free?

What does it mean me?

When troubled thoughts can be released;

When going within brings inner peace;

Free is clarity - for my mind.


Where is free?

How does it feel to me?

As toxic traces are expelled;

As Nature's gifts bring me back to health;

Free is tranquillity - for my body.


Where is free?

Why does it matter to me?

To live in a state of energetic grace;

In the here and now where all life is;

Free is reality - for my spirit.


Where is free?

How does it nourish me?

It's a flow of love that glides, or rests in sweet repose;

In a sacred place of stillness where creativity flows;

Free is serenity - for my soul.


Where is free?

Where does it take me?

To be myself in an infinite Universe of possibility;

To love life and co-create a beautiful life on Earth - for all people and for humanity;

Free is humility - for my whole being.
