Free

Loving this life
Singing, Dancing
Free

The songwriter
Writes
Composes
Loves


His soul soars
Free again
At home

His happy tones
Make my day
Brighten my world
Give me hope

Knowing he's back
Challenges me
To be better
To strive for more

The songwriter was silent
but
That's no longer so

Loving this life
Singing, Dancing
Free
Free
Free


* I wrote this poem about my best friend Robbie, who at 27 was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. He has suffered a lot while trying to get himself on the right medication to be functional again. I'm so proud of him every single day.
