This blog exists to celebrate poetry. I have been posting my favorite poems since March 2007, and that’s pretty much it.
Thanks for visiting.

The Golden Keys of Freedom
The golden keys of freedom won’t open any door
Oh no my friend just read on, they open so much more
They open a place within the heart,
A place within the soul
Where hope and love live side by side,
The things that makes us whole
They open eyes that will not see,
the injustice so nearby
They open the hearts that are cold,
hearts that never cry
They open arms that tightly wrap,
that never do unfold
They open minds that cannot think,
minds forever cold
So with Golden keys of freedom held tightly in my hand
I’ve joined the LENNOX army, marching throughout the land
I wrote this poem when I saw the injustice done to animals by man
Thank you for sharing your poetry, Jackie.
