On, little Kestrel, away you fly;
Catch the wind and soar on high.
Flit along on wings of song,
Beyond the bounds of mortal rule.
Let no evil do you wrong,
Nor persons seek to ridicule.
With swiftest sight, and ears so keen,
Evade the chains that you descry.
Heed no jester, king or queen,
Go, brave Kestrel, away you fly.

Love is a song. That you sing to me. Love is creation. Wild and free. Love is a dance. That moves within me. Love is the place. Where dreams begin. Love is a bird. On freedoms wings.

Would that my feeble poetry Had the power to set you free Then thou would soar with eagles. And if my words could hunger sate Then never would be bare your plate And thou would feast with regals.

Just Be.
Glistening shinning lights leads us all and listens to our plights. Shows us the way and makes us better everyday. Life is what we make it to be, I want you to be you and me to be me.

I second what @eddie12309 said!! This is beautiful!! I am completely blown away! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Thanks for the lovely feedback, folks. I should explain a little about this poem. It is a short nursery rhyme from my novel-in-progress. It was told to my protagonist, Kestrel Daystar, by his mother.
