Personal dreams float away with limited baggage:

wrappers of self, discards of transit between

 

home and reality mark passage on the roadside.

Their footprints and loose down melt into snow

 

with their names.

 

Numbers flock, fear-ruffled feathers, colour noted;

now a tether, to this land. 

 

Fly away little birds, find warmer hearts

 

where all have worth,  borders mean nought,

sing of the place when you find it.

You are very generous. Sad that world circumstances prompted the writing of it.

Best wishes

The poignancy of this poem leaves the reader contemplating that last line..and if that better place exists...birds will sing about it.smiley

...for your thoughtful reading. Sadly those of a different hue are held in stasis, birds appear to have a freedom we don't afford to each other. Their song may lead, I hope.

best wishes
