THE OTHER SIDE OF WINDOW
Bleakness within four walls
Sun beams through the window;
Lay scattered for a little change
Pulls me to the window pane to show.
With my micro deliberation
Applying five strong senses;
Found me in chains of subjection
Fruitless strife to jump over the fence;
Imprisoned life spends inside
Tears flow when see the other side;
Complete freedom; cheerful life
Impatient mind desires to slide.
Little to large; plants and animals
Joyous life beneath the free sky;
Jealous I am inside the cabin
Look for an arduous freedom.
