A small saga to be heard

A young girl, dreaming of being a bird

Living a life

Deprived of strength and vitality

Eager to learn and to do what's right

Owning the hardship of caring for two

Options to abandon, would not do

A burning desire to go far

Escaping only while the door is ajar

Soaring above the emotional traffic jam in her heart

Only returning to extinguish the pain and

Encourage others to do their part
An empty nest would not be left
As mother placed her duties, atop a shelf
Freedom found
Heaven Bound
