Free Spirit

The majestic midnight cool breeze

Blows through my hair

Leaving in disarray

As others love to stare,

A free spirit I have become

And I think they may be jealous

Or who knows

They may be zealous,

However they may feel

My spirit will roam

For if it doesn't

Then I will have not grown

I am playing Devil's advocate here I guess by pointing out contradiction of a spirit which roams. This would meet the standard definition of having no direction and with no direction there is rarely any growth. I only point this because recently i've done some research on the real meaning of the reference of Free spirit. This a person who does not follow a path but is carried by feeling only usual what makes one feel good but not necessarily good for them. This phrase usually is synonymous with independence with the underlying meaning of following one's own independence and not that of Christ teachings. I just thought i'd share want I have learned.

I would prefer to regret something that I did, rather than regret something I never had the courage to try. Nicely done, Tarry!

Your words are true. We must grow and sometime people we know won't understand. I like the journey and the wisdom in the end. We must expand and learn. Or become forgotten. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
