Gusts of wind
blowing the grass,
purple and yellow flowers
littering the fields.
Trees beginning to bloom
and working kids around.
Cloudy skies blocking out the bright sun,
a peaceful essence surrounding us.
How long will this last?
Your smile lifts my spirit
even if everyone else was gone today.
With you I can ride on the wings of freedom.
Life is too short,
I want to be brave for you
so we can fight
and break out of this cage.
