    Poem Commentary

    A poem about freedom is a gift not a privilege.

    Freedom To Fly
    Freedom to fly
    Is a God given gift
    Dreaming  is as air is for living
    Flowing down from His highly exalted throne
    Freedom to fly
    Is not a privilege granted 
    By rulers who's  realm of authority is ground bound
    Knowledge of wrong and right
    Is revealed to us
    From The Righteous One
    Who dwells in a kingdom on high
    Knowledge of wrong and wright 
    Should not be dictated by corruptible judges
    Who suppress the truth
    For worldly praise
    Freedom to fly 
    Is a desire
    Like an unquenchable fire
    A pilot that God  ignited in side us
    When He created you and me
    Chains of sin 
    Robs us of the freedom to fly
    Keeps our souls sinking in the mire
    God so full of love
    Out of His nature of grace and mercy
    Sent from His throne room a Savor to the people of the ground
    To shatter the chains that keep us fastened to the gates 
    To the entrance of the lake of fire
    Freedom to fly
    Those who God has set free is free indeed
     Free to Fly on the Spirit wings
    That one day will carry them to God's kingdom in the sky
    For those who think the message and Gift of God is a bad joke
    They will fabricate their own myths of hope
    Like the Greek Character Icarus
    They will try to acquire their own way to fly
    They will create wings out of wax and feathers
    As they Fly toward the kingdom in the sky
    The Son will melt their wings

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
