Feeling free and running wild.
Just then i thought the heavens smiled.
The warm orange sun; my destination.
I don't look back to avoid complication.
I breath in deep and think of spring.
The wind past my ears: it seems to sing.
My new home is the world, I am freedom.
My new friend is the sky. I am air.
My new dreams are the stars. I am spirit.
My new heart is pure. I am rare.

awwww~ this is precious

a few suggestions;
>>I'd cap the 'i' in the second line
>>should be "I breathe"...need the 'e'
>>think it would flow better : "The wind passes my ears, it seems to sing
>> I think : "My new home is the world. I am freedom">> use a period there...it keeps that stanza cohesive...
overall, I like it. I like that you really when beyond what was in the pic, and didn't talk about the dragon/dog
in the picture directly.....
"I am rare">>>.love this! it can be taken so many ways. As the wonders of individuality, a subtle reference to the fantasy creature and overall fantasy appeal of the picture. I'm quite impressed with you direction
love the carefree atmosphere of your poem, its how I, too, felt about the piece, and I'm glad you brought that out
bravo.
~g'luck~
