Meadow of Leeway

Pampered puffs of righteous clouds
are quickly pink with butterflies.
Heaven heals our shackled souls
beyond the entrance to the skies.

Cotton leas of endless stance
reflect the angels' glowing light.
Let us caress the untold faith
as options stretch across our sight.

Beauty is it's greatest offer --
Sprinkled thoughts are now awake.
Freedom is no gift to give,
because it's not something to take.
