Here is where freedom treads,
without restraint nor boundaries.
But beautiful songs
without form and structure embedded
never sweep love's smile
into the sky.
Rhythm and guardianship
catch melody's breath
and liberty sighs and flies
upon currents of tender whispers.
Cool curves of independence
are coiled with love's laughter
and magical moments.
Here is where fascination
hums a flowering tune,
the rhythm beats a road
to life's deliverance.
Without the handrail
swaying upon cliff's precipice,
beauty of the storm is destroyed
to be washed along
as life's debris.

Thank You!
Thank You for Your entry: Nurture Doesn't Live Here
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and after reading several times ~
I'm Honored also Humbled You took the time to pen for my contest
You took the prompt and brought forth much for the Mind to feast upon~
Bravo!! When I digest words written, images come through that grab hard~
Woven Strengths: Wow~ when I was digesting Your words, I kept being
shown a flag at half mass for some reason
I'm also shown a flower opening up but in like real time...but sped up
like what one would see on National Geographic
Also seeing a fountain- liquid erupting from somewhere but the focus
is on the liquid flowing freely- like from a water fountain
I'm show a child waving this American flag and being held up by her
parent Feels as if a parade However this to be interpreted
Love the direction You took with this prompt
Hopefully my comment to Your write makes sense
Powerful verse and message You have brought forth
These words grabbed and pulled~
beauty of the storm is destroyed
to be washed along
as life's debris.
Vivid Imagery poured in these lines...
Thank You for sharing Your Talent also Voice
also best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
Many blessings too 
with much love and light~ Desire~*~

This is a wonderful reply to the prompt, Poet. The song used in the contest has long been one of my own favorites. There is such poignancy drifting along each line. Having been an independent soul for most of my life, since I was a mere 15 years old, I can certainly identify with and admire your first and third stanzas. I wish you well in the contest.
