You soar
Like a bird released from its cage
Flying for your freedom
Oh the joy of being carefree
The joy of a soaring spirit
And a flying soul
Its beauty taking wings
Of beautiful silk
Oh, little bird in your cage
How I'd love to set you free
So you could fly to your freedom
Because I know how it feels to be free
I'd set you free
Free as raindrops on a lush green hill
Free as rainbows in the sky
Free as lightening in the horizon
Free as thunder that rumbles in the distance
Free as dewdrops kissing the flowers
Free as lacy snowflakes covering the ground
Free as a bird released from its cage
Oh, little bird how I would love to set you free!

Ready to write something
But nothing comes to my mind
As I look out at the rain
Which makes me feel kind of dismal
I try to think of something to write
But nothing comes to my mind
It is hard for me to write
Because each time the lightening
Brightens up the room
And the thunder rumbles
I cringe
I do

I am now entering into Poetess's block. Anyone want to join me?? ;) ~<3
My heart is a harp in need of new strings
his verses were spun sugar
i was stuck on them
as he poured them by the vatfuls
upon my eager eye
for him i displayed my heart
unabashed and openly
he wrote upon its beatings
his stories and his poetry
till all my heart could speak one day
were tales of him and his.
his words were big words
spun with the fabric of  my dreams
and when those dreams were rent and torn
upon my sighs his promise was borne
as if it never were before.
a new vow now was set in stone
--never would I love a poet
again.

Clover, bell of three,
Welsh Patrick, coracle and Gaels,
  .  .  .  Sacred trinities.
Legend (dating to 1726, according to the OED) credits St. Patrick with teaching the Irish about the doctrine of the Holy Trinity by showing people the shamrock, a three-leafed plant, using it to illustrate the Christian teaching of three persons in one God.  For this reason, shamrocks are a central symbol for St Patrick’s Day.

The shamrock had been seen as sacred in the pre-Christian days in Ireland. Due to its green color and overall shape, many viewed it as representing rebirth and eternal life. Three was a sacred number in the pagan religion and there were a number of "Triple Goddesses" in ancient Ireland, including Brigid, Ériu, and the Morrigan.



The coracle is a small, lightweight boat of the sort traditionally used in Wales but also in parts of Western and South Western England, Ireland (particularly the River Boyne), and Scotland (particularly the River Spey).  The word "coracle" comes from the Welsh cwrwgl, cognate with Irish and Scottish Gaelic currach.

Designed for use in the swiftly flowing streams of Wales and parts of the rest of Britain and Ireland.
